Initially, it would have to be free, so that there is enough players attracted though.
I might as well, though I'm not sure of that. It would need to have added value in addition to just hosting the game, though, like a "find opponents" feature (need not be ultra-refined).

As for the "hoster loses interest in the game" problem - what prevents them from zipping the game's files and sending the result to another player, who could from then on act as a host - either network or PBEM?
