It's hard to believe the university when it says that Napster is being provided for free. Nothing is ever free. Although our activity fee hasn't seen an irregular rise, I'm pretty sure the students are missing out on some other alternatives we could have done with the money given to Napster.
We are all paying for this service, simply to have all the songs that we download disappear when we leave school. Well, at least now your money won't go to waste since you can find several programs out there on the Internet that'll allow you to stream record these "protected" music files and virtually have flawless music files. Now you can download music, record it into mp3 format and still not get caught by the Recording Industry Association of America. I say it's worth having the service.
