Agreed, I avoided those issues as I was concentrating on the main idea. |

The majorlabels use p2p-systems for years to generate valueable data for marketing purposes.
It's ok if the data is not traceable to a person, but with registration that is just want napster and others want: to sell personalised ads. |

I did a mix for the new record on i-tunes, and tried to burn it off, to check it out in the car, when it reached a certain track, the burn stopped, as it was available for sale and coded, at the i-tune store.
This was particulary annoying as the track had been sent to me personally.
I think in the long run , codes on music will be a good thing, what I worry about, is getting an annoying load of legal enquiries, for legitimate, permissioned music.
I also do not like the idea that my computer is public knowledge.
If you can pin-point a song, pin-pointing an exel sheet is obviously as easy.I have nothing to hide, but it just appears plain rude! |

Hate to be conspiracy theorist but it looks awfully like Big Brother to me. |

I disagree with "VANCE, Ashlee" here. I think what Napster are trying to do is a good thing.
Treating potential customers like gullible buffoons They're treating them as customers not idiots. The people who know the score surely would agree.
It takes me back to my comments on JK's new chart idea, the Last.FM style "radio" could work well here if Napster are smart. A chart of songs which are bought after the five plays or even make it beyond 1 play is a very good gauge of what people want to hear and not what they're being forced to. |
