Sure, but I think that for me, it means something completely different, than for you.

I never really was a member of the internet-community, and I think, I don't want to be one, at least not, if the internet-community is where you are.

Think a bit.
P2p-filesharing depends on a userbase. Few Users mean few files, mean fewer Users.
Kazaa has many Users.
Most Users of Kazaa don't use Gnutella.
If Kazaa goes down, many Users might switch to Gnutella.
=> Gnutella gets more Users.
=> Gnutella has more files.
=> Gnutella gets better.

... "the network"??? What do you mean by that, pal??? What network are you referring to? What "userbase" are you referring to? Do you even have a clue to what you are talking about?

*sighs* Seems I must write it much simpler.
NapsterClient = Program
NapsterNetwork = Form of distribution
UserBase = number of Users of the Network
NapsterClient = original Napster
NapsterNetwork = All Napster Servers
UserBase = All who use a Client which connects to a NapsterServer
NapsterClient went down but the
NapsterNetwork was still up, but the
NapsterNetwork didn't get the Users back, so the
Userbase went down.
Without Users the NapsterNetwork (all Napster-Servers) wasn't useful anymore, as it no longer had enough files.
=> If the UserBase is too small the best Program is rubbish.
Clear enough?
