I think we have seen enough of P2P. Any new form of "sharing" is either almost immediately set upon by those who feel they are being "infringed" upon, or is swallowed up by the current powers to augment their already gargantuan profit making machines.
In either scenario its a lose/lose situation for the public, who is ever at the mercy of corporate america who has the power, money, and resources to acquire or destroy anything that is not used to make them more money. It is quite a nasty side effect of capitalism that anything useful which does not create more wealth for the few is quashed. |
