These are all people with content they want to give away, but for whom the 'publisher pays' configuration of the Web isn't working. No better solution exists today than for them to put their file on the gnet and magnet links of the web site. |
First of all I think that there is a lot of non-infringing content that I think people would be interested in. Unfortunately as I've said before the people who either a) most desire the content is not aware that it exist or b) is not sure how to go about acquiring it. P2P solves this problem. But, it has to overcome the problem of shifting content horizons. It should return to a napster style like architecture with a central content index. Although Gnutella in its current form can function in this way the problem is that the ultrapeers are not stable and can cause shifts in content horizons
