| Anas_Hassan's Full Review: Napster |
Introduction
I heard about Napster from a friend. I told him that I was looking for some MP3, and then he told me that he knew a way to get them very easily. The next day he gave me a link for a program called Napster, I download it the very next day, and the download was extremely easy. I have had Napster for about six months and I have downloaded about a 100 MP3 in that short time. I have four main reasons that I love Napster they are listed below. There is a rumor out there that Napster will start charge on their service that will be about 4.95 a month.
Easy download
This program is very easy to download all you do is go to Napster.com and from there are all the direction how to download Napster, and install it. It took me about ten minutes to download on a normal 56K modem, which is pretty good. It took me about five minutes to install Napster. It was much easer than I thought it was going to be and a lot less hectic than most of my other downloads.
User name and Connection Type
When you are creating your own Napster ID and password, there are no long questioners like those other free programs, but instead it only take minutes to create your own Napster ID and password. Napster is a community of people that download MP3 from each other computer, and when you signing up they ask you what type of connection you have so the other person that downloading from you know at what speed is the connection at. This makes is much easer for other users, because then they can pick the fastest connection available, which makes downloading a MP3 faster.
Selection
Napster has well over a million users worldwide so if you are looking for a song, there is an extremely good chance that you will find it. I was amazed at their selection all you have to do go on search type in the groups or singers name, and if any of the users have it you can download it off them. There are also many new artists in there selection, and there are also many types of music they are not English, but there Arabic, German, French, and Spanish. I have downloaded at least one song of each language and I try to understand the culture by doing this.
Chat rooms
They have added a new option they are called Napster chat rooms, where Napster members can talk about MP3 and other stuff that happening in your life, I have meet so many interesting people on these chat room. I have even met my doctor and my boss on these chat rooms.
