You should go and read wolf 359‘s neat memoir of his days on the pirate FTP underground. Like most world-changing scenes, then, the Napster Nation has cooler, more dangerous, precedents: I like this, it gives things a feeling of legitimacy. Roll on the scenester squabblings over who ran the first MP3 server – well, no, actually, let’s leave that to the historians.
Have I mentioned how much I like Napster? But I am very bad at finding new music on it, rather than things I should be ashamed of and shiny shiny pop. Can you please all suggest something for me to download – under 5 minutes preferably because of my slow modem speed.
