Paper Summary:

This paper looks at the founder of Napster, how the program works, and the problems and controversies it has created. Court disputes are discussed and the reaction of various bands to Napster. A solution to the problem is suggested as well.

From the Paper:

"As the century turned, something huge emerged from the Internet: a new innovative process that allows users to receive music for free. Napster, the nickname of Shawn Fanning because of his nappy hair, "allows computer users all over the world to swap song files copied from personal CD collections, giving the average Neitzen easily searchable access to hundreds of thousands of songs instantly" (Graham 1D). The Napster emergence has instigated an unending distribution of free songs over the Internet, through the surfacing of other file swapping sites, and has spurred the future of Internet innovations."
