Napster, LOL! See the Italian Job yet? Charector (Seth Green) claims his roommate in college stole Napster software from him. Called Napster b/c he stole it while the guy was napping. Awesome flick.
Anyway, I can see why they'd want to shut down the music sharing, that's common sense. At the same time though, people have been sharing music since it was on records, or any other exchangeable format, with friends, family etc with no problems. This isn't a new thing, it's just a new form of media--digital. I see where they're coming from, but no one's making money off of it, just sharing, so I don't see how they can go after someone for copyright? I thought that only had to do with making money on a product when it was enforced?
It'll be funny to see how long they do these suits against anonymous users. How many 8-17 year olds cases will get thrown out, wasting a lot of legal expense for these folks? They may break their own financial back trying to do this. Not to mention, just because a name is on an ISP account doesn't mean that's the person doing the downloading. Just because you own a car used in a bank robbery doesn't mean you robbed the bank. I don't see how they're going to know who to sue. Sounds like they may be taken to court for making wrong accusations though.
