"I
think it's a good idea because it's people trading music. It has
nothing to do with
industry or finance, it's
just people that want music and there's nothing wrong with
that..."
-- Dave Grohl (Foo
Fighters)
Although, the recording industry has not always
and is only begining to embrace Mp3 technology and sites such as
Napster, many of the artists have made their opinion known.
Metallica and Dr. Dre are known to be against Napster and file
sharing, but other artists are not so eager to file lawsuits and
to join in those who protest MP3 usage. To see what some

Not everyone has been so positive toward Napster and the sharing
of online files. Many record companies are against the
sharing of files. Bertelsmann-A6 recently signed a contract
with Napster, the first of it's kind. Only time will tell
whether record companies will begin to accept the online services
and even use them as they can be used. Among those who
don't agree with Napster, and others, are Dr. Dre and Metallica.
Both of these artists have filed lawsuits against Napster.
