Johnston (AT & T-USA).

8. Only for some early adopters of tech-savvy music
fans, the new audio format had already taken
hold -the digital MP3.
9. The small size of MP3 files enabled peer-to-peer file
sharing of music ripped from CDs, which would have
previously been nearly impossible.
The small size of MP3 files enabled peer-to-peer file
sharing of music ripped from CDs, which would have

11. Back in 1999 Shawn
Fanning at the age of 19
was a student at
Northeastern University
in Boston when he had
the idea for a computer
program that would
make sharing MP3s
easier by allowing users
to see a directory of
songs stored on other
members' computers.
13. After months writing the program, Fanning released
it to a group of about 150 friends and internet relay
chat acquaintances.
14. Napster's fame spread
by word of mouth, and
it soon had 10,000 to
15,000 users.
But once the program was
featured on Cnet's Download.com
site, the number of users soared
into the millions.
15. Reasons Why Napster was useful: Reasons Why Napster was useful:
It helped people discover new music
Acoustic and various versions of the same song were available
Artists who were once unheard of gained recognition
The more peers online, the broader the spectrum of music
and more.
17. "It probably was the single-most-important event
as far as media consumption on the internet is
concerned,"

as far as media consumption on the internet is
concerned,"
(Phil Leigh, Internet Media Analyst)
19. The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA)
denounced music "sharing" as equivalent to theft, and
filed a lawsuit against Napster in November 1999 (and
against thousands of customers over the coming years)
for stealing music.
20. Heavy metal band Metallica
also filed a lawsuit against
Napster in 2000.
"With each project, we go
through a grueling creative
process to achieve music that
we feel is representative of
Metallica at that very moment
in our lives, ..."
said Metallica drummer Lars
Ulrich in the accompanying
press release.
21. “What record companies don“t
really understand is that
Napster is just one illustration
of the growing frustration over
how much the record
companies control what music
people get to hear, ...“
“Why should the record
company have such control over
how he, the music lover, wants
to experience the music? From
the point of view of the real
music lover, what“s currently
going on can only be viewed as
an exciting new development in
the history of music.“
(Prince 2000)

back in 1999/2000 to download music from Napster
with a 28K Modem blocking the phone line, with some
music files being corrupt, and no flat-fee and
Broadband in sight?
23. Apart from Prince one company understood that for Apart from Prince one company
understood that for
many customers the main purpose of using Napster
wasn“t stealing music.

27. “...The choice we“ve made, was

we love music! And it is
allways good if you do
something you love.“
“More importantly, music is a
part of everyone“s life. Music
has been around for ever. It
will always be around. This is
not a speculative market. (...)
It“s a very large target market
all around the world. It knows
no boundaries.“
(Steve Jobs during the Introduction
of the first iPod 2001)
28. “With the best-selling iPod, which debuted in
2001, and through the iTunes Music Store, which
launched in 2003, Apple Inc. and CEO Steve Jobs
capitalised on consumers' newfound freedom to
control their media.“

33. Impact #2
The Love of Music was Laying the
Foundation for Social Networks
34. Analysts say today's internet
landscape - with millions of
consumers downloading
songs from the iTunes Music
Store, watching videos on
YouTube or Hulu and
networking on social media
sites like Facebook -can be
traced back to the day in
early June of 1999 when
Fanning made Napster
available for wider
distribution.
36. Napster laid also the
foundation to Business Model
Innovation which are
challenging old paradigms:
Napster „gave„ something
away for „Free„ which paved
the road for various
successful Business Models
like „Freemium„
and the logic of a peer-topeer
network illustrated the
possibility to deliver „Less of
More„. The Idea later
described as „The Long Tail„
37. Impact #4
The Love of Music was Influencing

38. I'm not sure what influenced Lawrence Lessig, Hal Abelson, and Eric
Eldred in 2001 to found the non-profit organization Creative Commons
(CC), but if Napster hasn„t played a role, I would wonder.
39. Creative Commons was invented to create a more flexible copyright
model, replacing "all rights reserved" with "some rights reserved".
In 2008 Nine Inch Nails successfully released their latest Album
„The Slip„ under a CC-Licence over the Internet.

„Napster helped change the mindset of ageneration that now sees digital forms of
all media,
from music to newspapers, as more convenient.„
