zooko added,
My next blog post walks through mp3 file sharing and tries to argue this at every step: • Centralized mp3 hosts • Link-only blogs + ephemeral hosts • Napster • Limewire/Kazaa • BitTorrent Each point's peak popularity reflects approximately the bare minimum decentralization
In fact, you can view 2005's BitTorrent as a step backwards in decentralization compared to Kazaa and eDonkey which decentralized search. BitTorrent lazily (in a good way) outsourced search liability and p2p coordination (trackers) to centralized systems. DHTs/PEX/etc came later
