But at the other side the people who works with the software are losing.
To be honest, I don't think there's more to be said on this topic besides what's been said already, but personally, I love BT and it's efficientness. There have been some linux distros I have dealt with who's mirrors must have been hosted on cable modems or something equally slow that I wish could be torrented and have enough seeders at any given time. To expand upon what raven I believe (the guy I am replying to) said, who cares about software designers losing out as a result of BT? I think proprietary software will soon be a thing of the passed. Things just work so much better when they are open source
