I'll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It's not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.

Sure, the magic of torrents is that it's hard to truly take down. If 100 people are seeding something, good luck getting them all to stop. The next best option is to stop sites from hosting the torrent files that help you connect with seeders. But, now we have DHT that is like torrent sites automatically being peer to peer. Shits unstoppable.

But, ftp has great benefits as well for sure. Not to downplay that.
