Adding a new challenge to their list of legal attacks, the record industry and Hollywood studios have joined forces to sue MusicCity, Kazaa and Grokster, which together form one of the most popular file-trading networks to spring up in Napster’s wake.

They want to kill off Morpheus too? Say it ain\'t so...

I hope. :)

True true, and its not that mainstream, just enough to find what your looking for with a little bit of work...

There are so many alternatives out there, and there always will be.!!!

I\'m laughing at these ignorant fools who say "stop inventing that" or "From now on electricity is evil". How are you going to stop technology, you Amish pig-tea-baggers?

One dies, two borns. The way of life it is.

Crime has never been cleaned out, never will.

A legend Napster is already. Let us not forget it.
