Why would the network be less operable by not routing searches to freeloaders? They will not respond anyway. Of course, they might route the request to the
One, but the probability that they just routes it to another freeloader is 70%.
If everybody sendes the requests to those who are on their "buddy-list" (those who share files you like), then the number of hits will be
much higher.
I am sure this can be proven both mathematically and by simulation, but today being the first day of the rest of my life, I could not bother
