:angry: The new Napster does not ensure that artists get paid. I liked it when the stupid RIAA didn't shut it down. Now, I'm on Kazaa

I am sure the record labels ROXIO has contracts with will give the copyright holders their royalty's.
Not sure what you mean you dont like ROXIO's Napster, "cause artists don't get paid," but you prefered the old Napster, which was CERTAIN, artist and nobody got paid. and if your worried about artists getting paid, and your using Kazza, you can again be certain no artist gets paid.
So what's your reason you dont like ROXIO's Napster??

The RIAA shut down Napster, because artists and copyright holders were NOT getting paid, and copyright laws were violated. the RIAA helps to ensure copyright holders get paid.
