Because LW is a company. If the employer gets to much pressure, it can fire the employees and shut down the LW.com server. LW could also be bought, or even transformed into a business selling DRM content like iTunes music store. Many possibilities because LW is in the USA, where the RIAA and MPAA idiots are mistaking freedom with their money.
One thing is sure, LW will be restricting what users download and share eventually. They don't want it, but they might have no choice.
Future is community GPL based P2Ps.
