One word: superb. You can hardly ask for better than this.

I wonder if Netflix realizes they could offer all of their content in P2P format, too, now (while still being a seed out of many themselves), and they could avoid the whole peering deals mess, too.

If investors receive $0 in return for funding movies then why would they continue to fund more movies? You can make a few low budget movies using Kickstarter and similar methods but I don't see how larger budget movies could be made.
