Napster Adding "Protection Layer
Napster Adding "Protection Layer
In the new Napster, which the company says will be launched as soon as possible, users will still be able to swap MP3 files ripped from their own CDs. But Napster will add a new "protection layer" to MP3s as they move from one user's computer to another, allowing the service to control what users do with the files they download.
