 Distribyted is an alternative torrent client. 
-It can expose torrent files as a standard FUSE mount or webDAV endpoint and download them on demand, allowing random reads using a fixed amount of disk space. 
+It can expose torrent files as a standard FUSE, webDAV or HTTP endpoint and download them on demand, allowing random reads using a fixed amount of disk space. 
 
 Distribyted tries to make easier integrations with other applications using torrent files, presenting them as a standard filesystem.

+**Note that distribyted is in beta version, it is a proof of concept with a lot of bugs.**
 
 ## Use Cases
 
 - Play **multimedia files** on your favorite video or audio player. These files will be downloaded on demand and only the needed parts.
 - Explore TBs of data from public **datasets** only downloading the parts you need. Use **Jupyter Notebooks** directly to process or analyze this data.
+- Share your latest dataset creation just sharing a magnet link. People will start access your data in seconds.
 - Play your **ROM backups** directly from the torrent file. You can have virtually GBs in games and only downloaded the needed ones.

 - Windows and macOS tests and compatibility. I don't have any easy way to test distribyted on these operating systems.

 After executing and load all torrent or magnet files, a web interface will be available at `http://localhost:4444`
 It contains information about the mounted routes and torrent files like download/upload speed, leechers, seeders...
 
-You can also modify the configuration file and reload the server from `http://localhost:4444/config` .

 ### Configuration File

 - FUSE: Other applications can access to torrent files directly as a filesystem.
 - WebDAV: Applications that supports WebDAV can access torrent files using this protocol. It is recommended when distribyted is running in a remote machine or using docker.
-
-#### To be supported
-- HTTP: distribyted will support direct HTTP access to files.
+- HTTP: A simple HTTP interface for all the available routes. You can acces it from `http://[HOST]:[PORT]/fs`
 
 ### _Expandable_ File Formats
 Distribyted can show some kind of files directly as folders, making it possible for applications read only the parts that they need. Here is a list of supported, to be supported and not supported formats.
 
 #### Supported
 - zip: Able to uncompress just one file. The file is decompressed to a temporal file sequentially to make possible seek over it. The decompression stops if no one is reading it.
+- rar: Thanks to [rardecode](https://github.com/nwaples/rardecode/tree/experimental) experimental branch library, it is possible to seek through rar files.
+- 7zip: Thanks to [sevenzip](https://github.com/bodgit/sevenzip) library, it is possible to read `7z` files in a similar way that is done using the `zip` implementation.
 
 #### To Be Supported
-- tar: Seek to any file and inside that files using a [modified standard library](https://github.com/ajnavarro/go-tar). Not useful on `.tar.gz` files.
-- 7zip: Similar to Zip. Need for a library similar to [zip](https://github.com/saracen/go7z).
 - xz: Only worth it when the file is created using blocks. Possible library [here](https://github.com/ulikunitz/xz) and [here](https://github.com/frrad/bxzf).
 
 #### Not Supported
