Pros: Find new music, find obscure music you thought you'd never hear again
Cons: Songs often download incomplete and you also have to wrestle with ethics
Seeing as how I have quite strong opinions and interest in Napster as a law- and ethics- shaping entity, I thought I might as well give my take on the actual software too.
If you haven't heard of Napster, where've you been hiding?...

Pros: Almost anything you want, you can find.
Cons: Some files blocked. No Resume download feature, frequent dropped transmits
I'm not gonna get into whether Napster trading is good or bad. That is up to the individual and that issue has been debated to death.
What I will focus on is my limited experience with the Napster client.
First of all if you have a...

Pros: Free!!, great selection
Cons: Could be a bit slow
If you haven’t heard the name Napster then you've been deaf for the past 6 months. Although that might be good because the only news about Napster that’s been out is bad news, unfortunately. Before I start talking about the news I'll actually talk...

Pros: Easy way to download all your favorite MP3's
Cons: There is a rumor that their will be a charge a 4.95 a month
Introduction
I heard about Napster from a friend. I told him that I was looking for some MP3, and then he told me that he knew a way to get them very easily. The next day he gave me a link for a program called Napster, I download it the...

Pros: Free, great selection, allows the freedom to wander into unknown musical territory
Cons: Sometimes finicky downloads, maybe they call it Napster because you can nap during slow downloads? (aww, whatd'ya want? It's free!!)
When I was about 7-years-old, my parents took me to a grand opening of a bank. About five kids at a time were let loose in a bank vault, the floor of which was covered in Kennedy half-dollars, quarters, dimes and nickels, about six inches deep. We had...

Pros: great music
Cons: i feel i am cheating my favorite artists
I love Napster, I don't think there are many people who don't.
I downloaded CONVOY, do any of you know that song, I had not heard it from the time I was about 6 years old...and Battle OF New Orleans?? Do you remember them???
Wow, was all...

Pros: Free music service with every song you can think of available on it.
Cons: Broadband oriented service, no security toward files, controversial.
Ah, Napster. If you don’t know what it is, you have literally had your head up your @$$ for the past year and a half.
But, that doesn’t negate my duties as an educator.
What is Napster?
Napster is a client & server...

Pros: easy to use, free download
Cons: very few
Despite all the controversy, all the bad press, and all the harm that Metallica did its best to send its way, millions of people are still using Napster. Is it because they're cheap and just want free music? Could be. Is it because they're trying to...

Pros: Massive amount of users, Instant messaging
Cons: Servers aren't linked, Lacks skinning abilities
Napster paved the way for multimedia sharing programs. It was the first to allow this unique method of sharing files, and it still remains the best in its field. This should not be credited to having great features or an intuitive GUI, but simply to...

Pros: Finding those hard to find songs, for free!
Cons: may not be around much longer
Unfortunately, I never downloaded Napster until all the controversy started. Big mistake on my part because I live on Napster now. I've tried just about every free mp3 file sharing program on the net and on just about every one I've always had problems...

Pros: A wonderful way to check out music before you spend money on it.
Cons: Being abused
Napster has been in the news headlines for a while now and through all of the media hype and mass e-mails that have been sent out on the subject I still don't think most people understand the true reason Napster exists. I don't believe that the creator...

Pros: A virtual world of music right at your desktop
Cons: May not be around forever, but let's hope
Okay, so I've been away for a while, not really catching on to what this whole "Napster" thing was about. I decided to cave in, and download the thing. I figured, since it was a "sophisticated" piece of software, it would probably...

Pros: Free, able to find a lot of different music from different countries/styles
Cons: Slow download times, a bit congested.
Okay, I too, want to jump onto the bandwagon and write a review of Napster. Although, there are already many splendid ones written here. So, I’ll be writing more from a personal experience point of view rather than giving you a thorough examination of...

Pros: Free Music!
Cons: Takes up computer space!
Unless you are living in a box or a bubble, you have to know about napster. Even if you do live in a box you still should know about napster. And you should definitely use napster. If you are one of the many people out there...

by Triple_Ultima , Sep 01 '00
Pros: Great Opportunity to get the music you've always wanted and the music you've never heard of
Cons: The hardware for playing MP3's anywhere besides your computer is quite costly
At first, I was skeptical about Napster. I wasn't sure I was comfortable with the fact that other users would look at the songs I have and then download them directly from me. I was anxious to try out some new artists I heard about. This left me in...
