then again, i'm one of the programmers of altnet, so i'm obviously biased. i just honestly believe that the p2p networks have a much greater role to play in the future than being a "global harddrive", and altnet takes the first babysteps towards that role.

well it sure sounds good when you put it that way jaan but i can't help thinking that in a world of limited search returns (say 100 for kazaa) using up some or most of them for what are essentially paid commercials leaves little left over for the actual reason we're using a p2p.
