Interesting.....I haven't seen anything like that.....but, like you said 
if they are blaming Napster they are a little behind the times......Yes, 
Napster might have been one of the first to cause National (Media) 
attention......but, they weren't the first and they won't be the last. 
 If your looking for MP3's there are like a dozen or more off shoots of 
Napter out there.

By the way, whats up with Steve Wozniak?......is he wanting/needing to 
make money/profit again.   Say it isn't so.....He's ran thru all his 
money and he's resorted back to Capitalism.
