Je computer uren aan laten staan voor één liedje? 💻Op deze dag in 1999 werd Napster gelanceerd! 🎶 De start van een digitale muziekrevolutie en het einde van je geduld bij het downloaden van een krakkemikkige MP3.
Eerlijk zeggen: wat was het eerste nummer dat jij downloadde? 😉

Uren wachten op dat ene liedje? 🎧
Op deze dag in 1999 werd Napster gelanceerd! Hét programma waarmee we stiekem MP3's ruilden via een krakende inbelverbinding. De voorloper van alle muziek op je smartphone. 💿
Wat was het eerste nummer dat jij downloadde? 🤔

Voel je je al oud? 👴

Пиратство, копирайт и DMCA: как Napster, The Pirate Bay и YouTube изменили закон. Часть II
Мы продолжаем рассказывать про то, как формировались нормы защиты авторского права в интернете в начале нулевых годов. В первой части мы подробно разобрал кейс Napster. В этой подробно расскажем про The Pirate Bay и другие проекты.

Пиратство, копирайт и DMCA: как Napster, The Pirate Bay и YouTube изменили закон. Часть I
Весной 2000 года Ларс Ульрих, барабанщик Metallica, пришел к офису предшественника «торрента» Napster с картонными коробками. В них — распечатанные списки с именами 300 000 человек. Это фанаты группы, которых Ульрих требует заблокировать на музыкальном сервисе Napster. В то время идея свободной информации противопоставляла себя авторскому праву. Это приводило к множеству перегибов, споров и судов. Многие из них сформировали индустрию такой, какой мы знаем ее сейчас. Разбираемся, как интернет-общественность боролась против закона и авторских прав, что решали суды и компании и что из этого вышло.

I just came across an article while researching for an upcoming radio interview that I *really* hoped was AI slop;
https://www.flavorwire.com/407971/does-spotify-prove-that-lars-ulrich-was-right-all-along
Maybe it is, but the person taking credit for it appears to be a real music writer;
It's been a while since I read a more wrongheaded, asanine, and completely backwards piece of nonsense attributed to a flesh and blood human instead of generated by a stochastic parrot.
(1/?)

Ten tydzień zaczynamy bardzo nietypowo, bo od historii formatu #MP3, #WinAMP, #Napster i generalnie wczesnych lat cyfrowej dystrybucji muzyki. Czasy piękne, nostalgiczne, choć zdecydowanie wątpliwe pod kątem legalności.

@nerstix @kuketzblog .... leider hört meime Geliebte über SPOTIFY , eine alternative könnte ggf. da etwas vom 'ALDI life Musik' (Napster) sein ,... ? Es wäre schön zumindest einige Worte zu diesen in Deiner Artikelserie mit aufzunehmen um zumindest dessen Hörer wachzurütteln und Argumente zum Umstieg auf bessere Alternativen zu erleichtern. ;)

As it comes out, it’s not only #Poland top ministers who use personal email for government comms, #Russia embassies also seem to be routinely using email registered on Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail, Mail.ru, Yandex etc for work-related communications. This #OSINT analysis has some interesting findings, such as large numbers of these emails being registered on… #Napster (who remembers that?)

Damit meine Kids keinen Unfug im Netz treiben, suche ich Methoden, die ich unterbinden muss, damit sie sich nicht Filme über Torrents oder sonstige Wege downloaden. Am Ende finden sie noch eine Möglichkeit, sich Filme von Netflix und Co herunterzuladen. Dem möchte ich zuvorkommen und unseren Familienvertrag um genaue Anweisungen erweitern, die den Kids verboten sind. Bitte Boosten :)

Gizmodo: Napster Is Now a Slop Farm for AI Music. “Much to my chagrin, everyone over 30’s favorite music piracy site is back from the dead zombie-style, and this time it’s billing itself as a platform where people (not people I care to know) can go and create AI music slop together.”

Digging for some historical information in the @pidgin repo and came across this gem of a commit message..
> Apparently if you don't cvs add a directory before you cvs add files in that directory, cvs just puts the files in the napster directory. ... Seems logical enough to me.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@onthisday/115673398971761625
I was working for SkyCache. We did satellite usenet and web cache pre-injection, saving ISPs money on transit costs. This lawsuit had a second order effect of dropping transit usage for those same ISPs. They stopped paying for our service.
It was a weird time on the internet. Prior to the lawsuit, a burst of innovation and scaling network capacities to accommodate the demand of P2P apps. With Napster falling and the dotCom bubble bursting all in the same time frame, the industry stagnated for a while. It was unfathomable to think we wouldn't need to keep scaling our network equipment, then overnight, *crickets*.
I think we're about to see the exact same thing happen with datacenters, GPUs, and electricity thanks to AI.

Freie Napster Server - die nie erzählten Fakten der MP3 Tauschbörse
Zum 25. Jubiläum der einst weltgrößten illegalen Musik-Tauschbörse "Napster" haben viele Nachrichtenportale den Aufstieg und Fall von "Napster.com" nochmal aufgearbeitet.
Allerdings gibt es viele nicht erzählte Facetten, die teilweise nicht einmal den Leuten bekannt sind, die Napster seinerzeit miterlebt und genutzt haben.
