Napster is a computer software company that lets users copy music. Over fifty million people have enjoyed the copyrighted music without paying a fee. The recording industry is unhappy with Napster. When users copy music free, the artists lose money.
The recording industry has sued Napster. A lower court handed down a decision against Napster. Then the case was taken to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals which is a higher court. The Ninth Court did not overturn the lower court’s ruling but asked them to modify the decision. Record companies were happy with the court’s ruling.
Hilary Rosen works for the Recording Industry Association of America. She says that companies like Napster are wrong both legally and morally. Rosen is very pleased with the court ruling. Some recording officials say that steps should have been taken sooner to protect copyrights. Others say that Napster is only one of many programs that offer free music.
Shawn Fanning is the founder of Napster. Recently he joined forces with Bertelsmann, a large publishing firm. Fanning and Bertelsmann plan to offer music users additional ser- vices. These new services will cost users and artists will get paid for the use of their music. Fanning wants to build a better company as soon as possible.
An injunction could shut down Napster within days. Fanning may appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. For now, Napster fans are jamming as much music as possible.
