;re very lucky...but what about the musicians who are just getting started". A band's popularity gets started by word of mouth and getting people to listen to their music. That is exactly what other musicians believe Napster is doing, helping new band get a break.
             The lawsuit with the Music Industry and Napster will most likely go all the way to the Supreme Court, ruling on the side of Napster due to First Amendment protection. But more is at risk than just an Internet company, if the type of person-to-person primer that Napster uses is found legal, the true potential of the Internet will be discovered. The means of everyday business and the way popular culture is marketed will transform to a way not imagined before. The customer can get the product or service without dealing with a middleman, a concept unthinkable now. Everything from movies to software will be shared, a Kindergarten teacher's heaven.
             Napster in my opinion should remain in use because no central server is used to transfer music files. I use Napster and I find nothing illegal about sharing music with someone that lives somewhere around the world. Basically it is exactly the same concept if I shared a CD with my sister, just it is over the Internet. The Music Industry should stop complaining about Napster and learn to accept that we live in a changing world. Even though it is hard to accept change because the Music Industry has not ever changed this drastically since Compact Discs were invented in the mid 1980's. The Music Industry should embrace this opportunity, when else do they get to hear what the kids of the new generation want. They should figure a way to capitalize on this venture that is going to be the way of the future. Only one company will win, if Napster does the world will evolve very fast leaving the Music Industry behind, using old fashion types of marketing and distribution.
             In conclusion Napster, a 25 million person websit...
