I've always thought magnet was just a URI scheme.

Seems that DDL sites like RS are taking over torrents to quite an extent though.

Well I guess you'll enjoy Torrentz when Isohunt goes down, then.

Well now they are at the point where:

Centralized Trackers (dedicated servers) are no longer needed to redistribute peer lists to connected peers.
Files containing information related to possibly Copyrighted Material are no longer needed - and therefore no files need to be stored on the server.

Not sure if the magnet scheme really does this.  Even if it does, all magnets are is a URI scheme.  There needs to be some underlying application which implements things the right way...
There will still be a need for a central server of some sort to allow peers to find each other.  It may be less centralised - eg a central server directing you onto a smaller "central server", but will ultimately need to exist in some form.
