simply put...
napster is a transport that is being used for piracy (we all understand that).
but, there are other transports like CDR's, HD's, Tapes, etc. used in piracy.
the point is, if they succeed in killing napster, we then can succeed in killing CDR's and such (you listening SONY!).
maybe if i find my software on a sony cdr i'll be taking you to court (silly isn't it) but it's the same stance you are taking now.
end rant (and sony purchases) and i have never used napster.
i tell you what if they block a port, and everyone starts emailing everyone the new port... i know exactly where i'm sending the bill for my business LOSSES because the net is flooded as a direct result of THEIR actions!
i don't use napster, never have, never will. (nothing against napster or the music industry) so, if the music industry and SONY decide to cause my business finacial losses we are gonna dance.
i wonder if any of those brainiacs (errr VP's) ever thought that through.
