I have the same issue - can't think of a single one. Most of the ones I could think of are solved better with CDN or other cloud services.

Well, should all DNS servers suddenly die it might be useful but besides that..

But, yeah, still kind of cool.

CDNs and cloud services cost money to setup and maintain.

This scales asset availability with popularity, automatically, for free, with minimal setup.

Happy to help. Thanks for working on this awesome project!
