…showed last 75 words of 1286 total…cooperating seems small. Stopping Napster would not stop the sharing of digitized music files. Because of its tremendous popularity, there are !
now other Napster-like alternatives, such as Scour, Freenet and Gnutella. Some experts believe that the the best thing that could happen has just came out today and is here to stay. Being a Napster user myself I believe it is a outstanding program that lets you get involved in the music industry today..
