Pros: Music! Cons: Speed
I didn't understand what the whole Napster craze was all about until I tried it myself. For some unbeknownst reason, my mom downloaded it, so there it sat on our computer. One day, I decided to check it out myself.
Napster, in my opinion,...

Pros: Free, easy, awesome Cons: was in a threat of being shut down, and may be in such trouble again
Yeah, napster is free, and it is awesome. However, do not forget that if you dont go out and buy the cds, napster will eventually be shut down. It is a great idea to try out one song from napster, and then go out and buy the cd if you like it. But, if...

Pros: free, easy to use Cons: all those damned lawsuits pending.....
First I thought that MP3's and Napster wouldn't make it. Then I tried working with MP3's and realized that the idea stood a chance, but wasn't sure about Napster - there wasn't a Mac client at the time, and it seemed ever so slightly illegal.

Pros: Free...and endless.... Cons: Might get shut down permanently soon...
This Napster debate will go on for as long as Napster is in existence (and if it is shut down, probably for years after that). As a person who uses Napster, I feel like there are a few members who are abusing the Napster Community and therefore causing...

Pros: You can find just about any song you want Cons: Resuming files is amost impossible due to the many different servers.
Napster is truly the greatest thing to happen to MP3’s. Before, finding a MP3 was such a challenge. You had to input what you were looking for in a search engine, weed through endless results that had nothing to do with what you entered, and when you...

Pros: It's GREAT and It's FREE Cons: Transfer Errors
Napster is one of the best things that happened to me. I use to buy atleast 2 cds a week, then I was introduced to a web-site called Napster. What it is- Napster is place you can go to trade any kind of mp3 files- You type in what you are looking for...

Pros: Its Free!!! Cons: Not as many songs available as there once was.
Many people have very strong viewpoints on Napster. If your the average Joe, you probably found Napster to your liking since it allowed you to preview music before you buy. If your a greedy music executive, you probably cant wait to see Napster's...

Pros: Easy to use...super large database. Cons: Sometimes the connection is slow.
Napster is everywhere. It's in the news, in people's homes, and all over the internet. It's a fitting trend for a world where information and high-speed technology is fast becoming the most important industry. Napster is also the ultimate way for people...

Pros: Started a p2p explosion Cons: Commercial entity using the Rhetoric of freedom to make $
Napster has a place in history, those people who have used it through the first year of it's service may have been present at the birth of a revolution
It now seems that Napster, at least in the form we know it, is unlikely to survive. Should...

Pros: This is the program that started it all, it gets credit for that. Cons: No movies, no programs and now...almost no music. There are other, better programs.
Napster had a pretty good run, there is no doubt; but with the recent law suits and filters, there is almost no reason to use the software.
What's that you say? You didn't get all that music that you wanted? Well, fear not, there are other...

Pros: Best thing since sliced bread Cons: None
About 6 months ago a buddy of mine brought a CDR back from vacation. He recieved it from a friend of his who was on the "cutting edge" of computer stuff. That disc had a program called "Napster" on it. The rest is obviously...

Pros: Many new innovative changes Cons: One Big Bug - downloads files directly onto your C Drive instead of into your music file
The newly released Napster BETA 8 MP3 software has many new and innovative characteristics but also has one major flaw. It lets you browse other library's without the software automatically populating the lists when all you wanted to do was view the...

Pros: Excellent choice of music. Cons: Slow downloads sometimes... and a few legal probs too...
MP3. MAC. ALL THAT STUFF. DON'T UNDERSTAND?
What the hell is an MP3?!?
Heard that question hundreds of time? Yep. Asked that question...?
MP3s are computer files that allow you to listen to music. They are no more illegal than...

Pros: every song, anytime Cons: none
Napster is one of the greatest programs on the net. You can find any song, any version, any artist, anytime. After you find the song you want, it will start to download and while you are waiting, they also offer you a chat room. You can do that or go on...

Pros: Great Software Cons: Some Bugs in the system still
I began using napster in March of 2000, right before the legal entanglement went public. I began using napster thinking I had the world at my hands! Anyway, I met really cool people on the napster chat section. It has tons of Chat rooms for any kind of...
