If any were looking for a replacement for napster since it buckled to pressure from RIAA, it's here: morpheus.
Are you sure this isn't just the first flush of enthusiasm which will fade in the cold light of morning? Isn't it just yet another closed source P2P network like Direct Connection?
Gnutella wasn't but didn't scale, morpheus appears to be scaling and if anything performance is improving as the data density gets higher so the sharing surface can give you the content you want from closer and closer nodes. There may be an inflection point where it starts to really take off as the number of users is still improving the usability, performance and variety of content.
Why don't you think Gnutella doesn't scale? <http://www.openp2p.com/lpt/a//p2p/2001/01/25/truelove0101.html> -- 1024/D9C69DF9 steve mynott steve@tightrope.demon.co.uk corporations are not evil. that kind of anthropomorphism is inappropriate. corporations are too stupid to be evil, only people can be that. -jwz
