gotta love hypocrites.
It's 12$ for a CD, 3$ for a single- big deal. just buy them if you like them.

dude, that's the whole point with mp3s... researches have shown that the people downloading mp3s are buying MORE CDs than the others, and also that their buying increased with it...
I have discovered TONS of new artist thanks to mp3 sharing, and it resulted in myself buying some of their cds, along with going to their shows... something I wouldn't have done if it wasn't for downloading mp3s in the first place.
btw, I wouldn't pay for the napster shit for one reason.... napster DOES have the best engine... but the problem is that the BIG record companies have sort of divided in 2... which will mean that napster will have ALL the songs of the companies that support it, while all the other songs from the other Music Co. won't be available through it, and will be only accessible through the competition's Software.
