Default The next step in file sharing?

Yes, I share, and I would like to share more. Here's a copy of a post (slighly edited) I did in the Xolox support forum:
-----------------------------------------------
Me too, just like Wolf, can only keep on my hard drives a small fraction of what I have to share (programs). What would be useful is a page/site of requests, especially for rare hard to find stuff.

That way, people like me, Wolf and others having a lot of stuff to share could go there to see what people are looking for but have trouble finding, and if we have it, we could then put it temporarily on our hard drives.

To be useful, the list would have to be maintained somehow. Ideally, the people having put the requests would be able to delete them once they got what they requested, so the "sharers" could delete the stuff from the hard drive.

What do you think? Could this be the next step in file sharing?
