Grrr... blame Lars of Metallica for initiating that one! They may be my favorite band... but the shutting down of Napster sucks. As a result you can't get "every" song anymore... but you can still get a lot of good music.
OK... I can see that "some" record companies are against it... and Napster is doing their best to block songs and artists from those record companies that have lodged compaints.
But the main reason I like and use Napster is to get Final Fantasy music. I can't buy FF music CDs in Australia and to get them online is hard to find and often very expensive. If I could buy them in Australia... I would... but I can't. Also, Napster is good to find songs that are hard to get or may be out of print now.
I can't see why they just can't let it continue the way it is... with Napster blocking access to the artists who complain, and letting the ones that don't mind still be downloadable.
Edit: FreakyLA... you sometimes get errors on Napster... just try again. It's cause people at the other end may be having internet problems or something. Also try to download from the good connections like T1, Cable and DSL. Avoid the slow connections.
