It can have all the drm it wants. It's not part of the open web.
Wrong. It works incredibly well. That's why the anti-piracy companies are all up in arms over things like PopcornTime. All you need are a couple of other people to download from. Hell, there's whole pieces of software whose whole purpose it is to stream torrents and they do it extremely well. Nothing even compares to the video quality, which is the same as if you downloaded the file ahead of time.
"TOR, vpns etc. aren't well suited for content distribution."
WTF does this mean? You can't distribute content over Tor or VPNs? I only do it every single fucking day without any problems and with ease.
"Due to DMCA, anonymity is a major obstacle for which there isn't a good solution yet."
The DMCA created anonymity? Whatever, I'm not even going to try to understand this one.
Not sure if you are trying to be intentionally dense. Have you heard of DMCA notices ? You get them if your IP is in the swarm, and are uploading copyrighted content. Hence the need for anonymity.
>WTF does this mean? You can't distribute content over Tor or VPNs?
Again, you seem to like being thick for no reason. You can distribute content over every medium imaginable. That doesn't make it the best or an efficient medium.
>Wrong. It works incredibly well.
You can't have adaptive streaming bitrates. The tracker model still relies on a central tracker. Magnet links solve some of those issues, but not everything. There are still some things that are, or would be better off, being centralised. There are several limitations that we don't need to go into length, but it's a far cry from incredible.
Example: DRM music hasn't stopped music piracy, but better models for the content distribution (i.e. DRM music platforms like spotify, etc.) have demotivated more people from bothering to pirate music.
