I think its great that most of the questions here are getting answered, but I'm still a little confused as to who this is for, and why adding bitcoins great great grand child to the project helps.

It doesn't look like its built for large data sets, since the capacity of the network is fairly low, and the providers fairly small. So if I want to store ~5TB of data, this isn't much of a fit and if I want to store ~5GB of data well there are tons of options and if I want it replicated, I'll replicate it.

Seriously though, I don't want to play game theory games with a list of storage providers, especially for tiny sums of data, I just want it to be there.
