Advantages: Free music

Disadvantages: Probabily be banned soon

Napster has ben a phemomen to all the million of die-hard fans all over the world.
Its sucess has been outstanding. Ask just one of its regular users on how they can now live without this tool.

The main obsticle in Napster is that it is most probabily going to be out-lawed by the colluding record companies.

For those who haven`t heard of Napster, it is a tool which allows connectivity to other users hard-drives and searches their specified folders for MP3 encoded music files.

I hold my hands up, the principle of napster is illegal. If you are one that downloads all of your music and gives none back or supports artist by not buying any CD`s then this makes a very strong case for the banning of Napster.

i think it is a tool which is better used by previewing the music that you are after if you like it then buy it.
Although the future of napster will probabily go the subscription route. Where a users pays a flat fee for access to the central servers. napster must have a business model in mind to activate at some point.

It is a great idea, which one day will make someone millions, however Napster has a unsteady path ahead, and must figyht for survival. GOOD LUCK.
