Umm, if someone running an FTP were to replace FTP access with BT 
download, how would that become worse than just FTP?  Especially when 
they get their bandwidth bills at the end of the month?  If you add BT 
to the usual distribution strategy, it becomes much more efficient for 
all involved.  I'll agree that if you place either one in a really bad 
situation (e.g. FTP is replaced with BT, along with a slower 
server/seed), the other will easily win, but if you place them in equal 
situations, I'm curious how BT would ever lose out.
