"is the interaction with your users. In BT there's none" This is by design, but I agree: it would be nice to have at least a way to point users at a place where a common standard and open protocol would allow communications related to the torrent. An IRC channel named after the file hash maybe? In the old days of Napster and later the OpenNap network (anyone here used the Lopster client?) I discovered a lot about unknown rock bands just by looking at files shared by other people and asking them for more information. Those were the early days of multiuser downloads, when downloading a not so famous movie could take like two months (it happened to me) so pestering the poor user on the other side with continuous downloads wasn't an option. Being able to chat also gave the users the opportunity to help each other to solve networking problems or other technical issues. Having some way of communicating without altering the protocol (that is, external server) with the torrent containing just a field in a structure identifying a channel, could be an interesting improvement.
