Even More on Napster
from the crazy dept
Okay, I have to admit, the Napster injunction has set off a much bigger reaction than I ever expected. I knew it would be big, but it's now everywhere. Every mailing list I'm on is discussing it (to death) and every online site has multiple articles on it. It's a little tough trying to figure out what to post, but I've been trying to post stuff that isn't just rehashing everything else that's out there. Here's an interesting set of quotes of different music industry people responding to the decision.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
