Yes, you are right. The users and the community have the power, just as they always have. Let's continue to ensure that freedom, by allowing users to continue file-sharing with anyone, without being forced to use specific clients.
Even if the OpenSource p2p network is successful, the for-profit client developers will simply adapt their software to be able to access the OpenSource network. And I would support that, in fact.
I'll say it again: I do not support the idea of limiting peoples' ability to share files with each other.
