Record Companies File Sharing
737 words
When I found out that colleges around the nation
blocked the use of napster from all students I was
very angry. Not only did they take away a students
freedom of expression but also their
constitutional rights as individuals. They need to
review the constitution over again. What students
in that situation need to do is get petitions
going around their college campuses, letters in
the email to send to congress and the school staff
to let them unblock the usage of napster and keep
the online music...

In the controversy against Napster, many
supporters fight to keep their freedom alive. This
case is about whether the plaintiffs can use their
control of music copyrights to achieve control
over Napster's decentralized technology and
prevent it from transforming the Internet in ways
that might undermine their present choke hold on
music promotion and distribution. This small state
of affairs has caused a huge clash in the way the
people of the United States feel about their
freedom of free music...

Compact Disk Music Industry

File sharing is what it is thought as, but I dont
see it that way. I see it as theft, music theft,
most commonly know as shafting. Every day people
use shafting and think nothing of it. People sit
in front of their computers and go to their
favorite website and download file after file with
out thinking how or where it comes from. They
think it is just there for the taking and it is.
What they dont realize is that it is messing over

Peer To Peer Rule Of Law

a dramatic decline in the price of reproduction
technologies much to the displeasure of the
copyright industry. The technological progression
has been virtually unstoppable: the photocopier to
the cassette recorder, the video tape recorder to
the newly developed recordable CD. The spread of

Mp 3 Files Mp 3 Player
1,221 words
Before the advent of MP 3 files it would require
1. 400 megabytes to represent just one second of
stereo music in CD quality. MP 3 is short for
Moving Picture Experts Group, Audio Layer III.
Standard MP 3 compression is at a 10: 1 ratio, and
yields a file that is about 4 MB for a
three-minute track. In 1987, Prof. Dieter Seitzer
of the University of Erlangen created the MP 3
format to replace pre-existing MPEG audio coding.
The reason MP 3 files became so popular so fast is
that when one creates...

Rolling Stone Magazine Difficult To Understand
2,640 words
Copyrights are designed to provide some form of
protection against unauthorized use of original
informational materials. The rapid shift of
information production and distribution to
electronic form, with its corresponding ease of
copying, naturally makes copyright-dependent
industries nervous. Much talk in the news and on
the net these days is about the future of
copyright law, a law developed in an age of print
and now perhaps too tied to that medium to have
ready application to today? s infor...

The Recording Industry Association of America
(RIAA) is suing Napster for allegedly enabling
music piracy through its proprietary Music Share

The Problem with Napster The sole reason behind
anybody's discrepancy with Napster is because
there is a group, maybe even the majority its
users abuse what it is capable of. They (they
being college students and others with
high-bandwidth connections [T 1, cable modems
038; DSL]) are using Napster to download entire
albums and put them on recordable CDs. They dont
see this as wrong, merely because they can, beat
