How do you feel about progams like Napster?
Poll Question:
The military has stated its interest in the technology, peer-to-peer, which Napster uses to share files. They say that it could benefit their communications.
Some analysts believe a more powerful Internet could evolve from this technology.
Do you feel such programs should be legal for these reasons though it promotes theft and distroys the music industry?

      I think these progams should be legal! Free for me AND it's great for technology!
      I think it's a great program, but maybe it's a good thing that it isn't legal.
      I don't know
      Maybe if there was a company that used this technology to share legal files instead, that could help in its evolution.
      I think there are pros and cons in a lot of things, but I also think theft is wrong in any situation.
