Students Evaluate Napster
October 01, 2004

Cornell students continue to test -- and debate the merits of -- the Napster music software that is available for free this year to University students. The software, which allows users to legally "stream" high-quality music to their computer from a central server, has received flak from students who say that the service's lack of support for Macs and the iPod music player is unfair.

"As a Cornell alum, I was dismayed to hear that the University has decided to enmesh itself in the ongoing legal digital music download wars," said Duane Andrews '99 in a recent online conversation. "However, I was outraged that, in doing so, the University went with Napster rather than seriously look at the features offered by Apple Computer's iTunes, the most successful, so far, of the digital music services."
