Any file shared between two computers is p2p sharing. Bit torrent is one of several programs designed to make p2p file sharing easier.

Depends on what file it is...
A torrent simply has a different extension and different program to download it...
If you download song.mp3 from p2p or torrent, the file will be the same in the end...
P2P uses peer to peer connections to get files.
Torrent also is Peer 2 Peer, but only shares files from torrent users.

in torrent the file which is downloaded is broken into numerous parts so download is faster,each has an extension .torrent
in p2p the file is not broken into smaller parts.
