[REBOL] Re: The dark side of P2P column ...

From what I've read on the site, RT is promoting a
client-side processing technology that leverages the
current server-browser model of the Internet.
What REBOL/View may have in common with some P2P
applications is that it enables "weblications"-- app
functionality and connectivity that provides a
different user experience than the model supported by
browsers.
Jim Seymour's technical arguments are a bit thin, but
that's beside the point (aren't SMTP servers a
peer-to-peer server technology?). Seymour and other
journalists are shackling the demise of an application
(Napster) to a technology (P2P).
If Napster wasn't peer-to-peer but it still let you
type the name of a song and listen to it, it would
have been just as popular.
