Media Delivery?

All these folks are basing their entire business on a flawed idea: That everyone wants to watch/listen the same things.

The only reason people listen to certain music, watch certain TV shows, and watch specific movies is because it's all that's available to them. Once their eyes are opened to the myriad of choices available, P2P delivery of anything from on-network peers will drop drastically.

Unless you're a House, Mythbusters, or The Universe fan, I won't be seeding anything TV related to you anytime soon and I doubt very seriously you'll like either my music selection or the movies I watch.

At least, that's what my girlfriend tells me.

Ya know Matt, I had that same (?)problem...
What I have/had as shares, most people never seemed to request.

That is, when I used to use BT often.
My share ratio was bad because of this.
Ah well, I have moved on to better things.

3 Mythbusters =). Great show and very educational in a sort of everything gets broken or explodes type way.

No, they are basing it on the fact that they won't to make a mousetrap that can only deliver media content that is ISP controlled. Geez, even a 3 year only could figure that out by the picture. (you really should have added a "first post" at the end, then I could have forgave you)

This P2P "technology" would be no good for non licensed content since the ISP will just filter, throttle or (insert any net neutrality violation here)
