I'm a bit confused. Isn't this such a system where people can volunteer disk space? https://annas-archive.org/torrents https://annas-archive.org/torrents I think I'm misunderstanding you.

My system is more "I want to donate X GB" and it handles everything, filling that space up, getting the rarest torrents, getting updates, etc. Think of it as a central server managing a globally-distributed, unreliable JBOD in a "push" manner, rather than just downloading a torrent and being done.
