Peer-to-peer still has the problem of overhead associated with the peer
technology. Of course, that should be negligible if a server is backing
it up, rather than just a bunch of peers who like aren't allowing full
upload speed. (I prefer it limited to 15 Kbps so it doesn't interfere
with download times.)
