how are 'servers' (smtp/web/ftp/imap) different than the existing P2P apps? Wouldn't a cable provider, if the decision was based on upstream bandwidth sharing alone, care MORE about P2P than 'servers' ?
But the decision is a business decision, because you can make "businesses" pay more for something that can run servers. And it´s harder to kludge smtp/http/etc. to work where servers are not permitted as p2p works by default. Pete
