Napster Lives Agian...Yahoo !!!!!!!!

[jacobnero8196]

Napster went to court today and got a stay which means that don't have to shut down at midnight. I don't know how long the stay is for, I hope it is til the end of the trial which could take a year.

Well, I think napster had a record number of people online at once.

8000 members were online at the same time, I sure had trouble logging in, I can tell ya that.

What is this "Napster" that you speak of?

[Ultima]

You don't know Napster???

Man, where have you been the last year???

Napster is a world wide shared mp3 community.
Ya can download it at www.napster.com (http://www.napster.com)

You should try it, it has a library of about 4500Gb's of mp3's.

......sigh

http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif It was sarcasm, aimed at the fact that there are about 8 active threads on napster right now.

I wrote this week's SysOpt newsletter forward about the Napster issue. Glad they got a stay. Still, Scour Exchange (http://www.scour.com/Software/Scour_Exchange/) is about 50 times better than Napster...

Great. Now one of the 8,330 napster members online can take a break knowing it may be around tomorrow.

[SysOpt]

Only 8,000 on Napster at a time typically? I haven't used it much.. I really don't mean to be a Scour advocate but just FYI there are currently 49,000 users logged into Scour sharing 2,854,411 files (10.76 Terabytes), and not just MP3's.

I can't get on to any of napsters servers myself, the only one I can get on is MyNap. I finally downloaded Scour but am sad to report that hollywood is suing them so who knows if they'll be around for long. Doesn't matter though because I keep finding more file transfer programs.

[CMonster]

I bet the hard disk companies are glad too!

[ck42866]

Does Scour Exchange have one server to attribute the high Terabytes rating?

Just wondering http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

I think there are many servers which are linked together to form one large server. That way someone on server 1 can transfer files with someone on server 39. I could be wrong though !
