Re: Napster



Napster signed up with german media conglomerate BMI which owns BMG.
That's basically all I've herd about it.

It doesn't matter whether Napster goes to a pay service.  Just like Napster 
sites like iMesh and Gnutella also use Peer to Peer networking.  P2P is 
getting to be a buzz word in the computer networking community so even if 
Napster, iMesh, and Gnutella all go pay or go out of bussiness or whatever 
there will be another service to replace it.

P2P has barely even begun yet in my opinion.
