Interesting discussion. Tim mentions how DPoS can be a better consensus model than PoW for most application because of centralization.

I happened to listen to the podcast of this today.
If you go back a little bit earlier in the video (http://youtu.be/zF2YwOnH-CA?t=21m16s (http://youtu.be/zF2YwOnH-CA?t=21m16s)) he states that DPOS is more distributed than Bitcoin.

Tim Swanson is a contributor at coindesk. I wonder if he ever wrote an article on DPOS for coindesk.
