More direct connections between the peers, instead of taking detours 
through the "pull mode internet" where you need to find a common meeting 
point somewhere which is not obscured by address mangling. And because 
of many NAT´s today limit the number of flows per subscriber, you also 
should get more performance, which is something that directly appeals to 
end users.
