Seems quite promising! I heard it could use more maturing.

It's in a wierd place where unless you can guarantee that other people will be hosting your content, it's worse than a direct download server. I'm in the process of building a system similar to torrent private trackers where you have to seed to learn CIDs of the content you want (yes, if you know them already I can't stop you, I know.) And that helps distribute the load. We'll see how it goes.
