Many people think not that Gnutella is the best...

If they create an own protocol they are free to do what they want without any discussions.

They can asked money for their protocol.

They could loose users to "better" or Spyware free Gnutella clients...

etc. etc.

Try to think like a company with 2.500.000 users... why should they use a protocol with about 100.000 users?
