Democracy? Hard to say without context. There many not be any such word. – Barrie England Dec 5 '12 at 16:47
It might help if you gave more info about context. Do you mean in a political sense? People working together? Charity? Etc? – Jay Dec 5 '12 at 17:13
Basically like a peer1 -> peer2 type deal. I provide content or video for sale and then a peer2 can buy that. But peer2 can provide content or video as well for sale. Basically like a big exchange. – Jerry Tunin Dec 5 '12 at 20:11
