Calling Napster 2.0 "Napster" is like hiding peas and broccoli in a kid's ice cream sundae. You tell him it's one thing, but it's really another. The new version is out, it's legal, and it's "a whole new way to find and buy music." Yeah, you buy it. Maybe if we all close our eyes while we pull out our credit card to pay 99 cents a song with digital rights management and in a Windows only format, we'll *feel* like digital pirates.

Napster 2.0 is targeted as an iTunes for Windows, but iTunes just came out for Windows 2 weeks ago, so *shrug*. The music you download is WMA format, not MP3, so it's 100% useless to me. My Slimp3 player doesn't play WMA, and the Slimp3 wears the pants in my musical household.
