Probably true for the mainstream companies. This model suggests an
open, cooperative world and I don't believe the game companies are
ready for that. Certainly the VRML community and VR in general has
been very receptive to this for a long time. I would also tag
Epicgames (Unreal) as a possible mover in the P2P side of things,
although it also looks like they are beefing up their client/server
programming.

When object or attributes have value, then the possiblity of cloning
or attribute tampering is real. We have already seem cases like this
with our c/s model in the dupe bugs. This is one of the reasons why I
believe that some kind of digital object security system has to be
devloped. LEDO (limited edition digital object) seems to be a
dead-end and I don't know of anyone doing something similar.

It's possible that a person could build a whole business out of some
trusted server network This is sort of a wierd idea as I think about
it.
Maybe not so wierd though. A growing business is network storage
where your content is out there on the network, but you really don't
know where and don't care. Part of network storage also includes
providing duplication and backup services, general security, and data
integrity.
