NTKnow: "Even if Gnutella and Freenet still don't, ahem, actually work very well, we're sure somebody will have the smart idea to use them as systems to pass around a simple text file of the new, free, Napster server IPs. That should keep things going after Napigator gets shut down, or the RIAA starts cutting out the middle man and shooting its customers direct. And then there's sure to be someone writing a simple search program to iterate through all those servers. Or, dammit, why not just code up a front-end for IRC which is where all of this stuff would have stayed, out of the way of all you damn college kids and in the hands of the slightly-more-obsessive college kids who've been trading for years."
