I like the idea of slowing downloads until user has uploaded a significant amount. BUT there are files with limited demand, and take ages to upload to others after downloading. I downloaded "Daria" and "Dr Katz" many months ago and only last week decided to finish (ratio 3.00). In the past my ratio has been poor (typical .5-.8) partly because of limited speed, and the need to free up disk space. Keeping Daria and Dr Katz up so long was to redress the imbalance. Incidentally, I now have faster speed, so the problem is not as acute now. What can be done (or maybe has already been done) regarding downloaded files where the upload demand is minuscule?
