Hi,
Good article.

It actually makes sense when you think about it. Most songs on Napster that arent rare or live are the more popular singles, so one could assume that these are the most often shared.

And while single sales have dropped, at least everyone I know who uses Napster uses it to get a feel for a band before buying the able, which the statistics seem to back up.

The recording industry should actually back Napster, even with a low fee per month structure. Its a functional PR machine to promote bands.
