i don't want a central repository, which is why i like gnutella

all bittorrent does is break apart files and send them to you from many different sources, and it doesn't even use it's own protocol for file transfer, it uses ftp or http

i could make a webpage with a huge list of shit and people can click the hyperlinks to download the stuff, that's basically what bittorrent is except it sends you the file chunks from different sources

bittorrent is way over rated

No, BitTorrent works perfectly for what it was originally created for, the sharing of source code.

People have tried to mutate to share other things, and if you find the right torrent with the right seeds then you can theoretically download entire movies in minutes. The problem is the theoretical part. Bram Cohen has said multiple times before that bandwidth has to scale before BitTorrent can scale.
