Napster ... community of MP3 fans, in that each Napster user "shares" his or her MP3 collection with everyone else running Napster, ensuring a vast collection of MP3s for download.

Newest Review: ... £9.99 a month, thats amazing. Initially I was a bit sceptic about the offer until I tried it last week. (you can play the files you are downloaded as long as you keep the monthly membership, otherwise it stops playing) I've tried to search all my favourite tracks from 90's to the 2005's ...belive me everyone one of them are avilable on napster.

Gone are the days of illegal P2P mp3 swapper. Napster is now re-lanunched sometime back with legitimate music just like your high street music shop. The difference is, you can hear and download all the avilable music on this planet for just £9.99 a month, thats amazing. Initially I was a bit sceptic about the offer until I tried it last week.

Premium Review Napster - Best music service? (630 words)
by - written on 03/07/05 (Very useful, 5512 readings)
Rating:

We all like stuff for free and some people like music for free so what do they do? They go to the P2P (peer to peer) websites and download free music of course as more and more people are doing this the music companies are going mental that they are not making enough money because people are getting it for free of the P2P websites. And so in 2005 they have decided to crack down on this and children have faced fines up to 4 thousand pounds and if they can’t cough up the dough then their parents face imprisonment……. But the music is so expensive in the shops we don’t want to buy an album that have 5 good songs and 50 rubbish ones. We want the music that we like cheap and ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Napster?, naahh... Kazaa is much better (418 words)
by - written on 22/04/04 (Somewhat useful, 387 readings)

Well since Napster shut its doors a while ago I've converted to being a Kazaa lite user. I find Kazaa is Very good for downloads, whether it be Movies, games or music you are after many of the users offer a wide variety of different things. The best part about Kazaa is that it is free to download and use so all you pay is your phone bill (if you are not paying monthly ). Being a broadband user many users speeds depend on their connection even if you have a broadband landline they may be using a 56KB modem so it'll take the time of a 56KB modem to transfer onto your system so this can effect the rate of transfer from one machine to another. I would ...  Read the complete review

The Internet Isn't The Same Without Napster! (462 words)

I was very annoyed when I heard that the goverment had stopped transfers from going ahead on Napster. Back in February 2001, every major artist's songs where blocked from being downloaded, leaving just unknown or bad quality tracks. Here are the reasons I want Napster to be reinforced again: *Firstly, millions of people used Napster everyday to test out singles before they bought them. For example: If you were wondering whether or not you should buy the new Janet Jackson album, you could download a few of the songs, and if they were any good then you'd know to it'd be good to own. *Many people can't afford to go splashing out on ...  Read the complete review
