By N2H

Napster is the pioneer of free digital music & offers the ultimate in interactive music experiences, creating better ways to discover, share, acquire and enjoy music – anytime, anywhere.

For a limited time, Napster is giving away Unlimited Free Music on Demand Download for all US residents. Existing Napster subscribers could also get other free offers like a Free MP3 player.

Napster uses a peer-to-peer technology to distribute MP3 music files. Instead of storing the songs on a central computer, the songs live on users’ machines. This is called peer-to-peer sharing, or P2P.

When you want to download song using Napster , you are downloading it from another person’s machine, and that person could be your next-door neighbor or someone halfway around the world.

Shawn Fanning developed the Napster method of peer-to-peer music sharing in early 1999. In fact, Napster was Fanning’s nickname in high school, because of his hair! In its early days Napster was a free music downloading & free music sharing site. But copyright regulations now demand a nominal fee for downloading.

Napster uses the P2P protocol. This protocol revolutionized the Internet because it allows people to connect among themselves directly, sharing files on their particular hard-drives. With P2P Napster technology, people can access your hard drive, as you can access others hard drives, and listen to music files.

Napster MP3 music is compatible with a wide range of media players . However certain media players like Apple iPod or Microsoft Zune might require additional audio converters to play Napster music . Napster also supports FreeNapster – a unique Web experience offering free on demand music legally .
