[chord] redundancy in Chord

Hi folks,
I was wondering if Chord is designed to be redundant in the sense
that if a node goes down, would the files at that node have been
replicated elsewhere, perhaps in a distributed way(most likely) so
that they could be retrieved? An example application would be like
looking for mp3 files.
Another way of asking the question would be: does Chord allow for
multiple instances of a particular file to exist on different nodes,
and if Chord itself enables that capability or expects the
applications to do it own their own.
Thanks
Durga
