Napster Nazis Nobbled

Napster Nazis Nobbled: Eurolaw vs the Internet, again. But what’s this? “Napster’s usage Ts&Cs prohibit the use of the service for the exchange of material likely to incite violence.” Now then, it seems that quite a lot of music - quite a lot of very good music, too - is likely, or at least designed, to incite violence against people, property, the state, your fellow fans, hippies etc. (Is the consensual violence of the moshpit still violent, though? Is Primal Scream’s “Kill All Hippies” inciting much more than a jaded yawn?)
