> If hierarchy, market concentration, and single points of failure don't already exist, they will be reinvented. From another point of view, if at least one point of responsibility does not exist, it will have to be reinvented. There have been plenty of times when I can't download something because, while I can find the torrent on a tracker, nobody is actually seeding it anymore. Sometimes nobody has been seeding some obscure file for years. Nobody in the distributed protocol is responsible for keeping up old torrents, so nobody actually does. Then it becomes easier to go as Netflix or iTunes for an unpopular old movie than to torrent it. I'm pretty sure this happened with Iron Sky when I wanted to watch it.
