Comment Re:Whats wrong with banning Napster? (Score 2) 539

I am a parent of a college student and pay more than $30,000 per year to her college in tuition and fees. I would be distressed if the college viewed the enforcement of the copyright laws as an important part of its mission. I would be outraged if the college forbade my daughter's bio-psych professor from distributing photocopies of recent articles on brain function to the class because such copies apparently violate the copyright laws and would question the college's priorities if it wasted resources enforcing someone's interpretation of the copyright laws as they relate to Napster. I would be seriously troubled if the college reacted to evidence of inadequate bandwidth by restricting use rather than seeing unexpected growth as a leading indicator of the need for more capacity and allocated resources accordingly.
