Napster is now (kind of) free (again)

So remember back in the day how you could download whatever you wanted in your dorm room's T1 line? Napster very nearly flunked me out of college. And I will forever be grateful to them for that. Fast forward a couple of years. In a desperate move to gain some ground on iTunes, they are are allowing you to listen to every song in their catalog 5 times before you have to buy it. Plus they have some nice little features like internet links, so I can link to Captain & Tennille all I want on my blog. Also, their free player is Flash based, so it works just as nice on a Mac as a PC. And I didn't have to give them any credit card info to register. Really, I can't imagine how they could have done this better. Kudos to you, big megacorp that bought the dead Napster brand.

  6. However, when the Americans and Colonels arrived, they found a bizarre scene. The floor had several missing boards and bolts, and was unstable in several areas (one player claimed to have seen one side of the floor come up when he stepped on another).

  9. After receiving offers from numerous broadcast partners, including what was then their current rights holder Cablevision, YankeeNets decided to launch a new regional sports television called YES Network.
    The 1998–99 season was delayed for three months due to an owners' lockout of the players. When the abbreviated 50-game season began, the Nets were a fashionable choice by experts as a surprise team after their previous run. However, Cassell was injured in the first game and the team started poorly.
