Faded to Black - Napster

True Crimecast

About this episode

In 1999 our favorite albums were nearly $20, which is a lot of money if you're in high school and have no job. However, a software company called Napster came to our rescue. With this software, we had all of the world's music available at just the click of a mouse (and 4,728 minutes of wait time.). Over 60 million users of this service enjoyed unlimited downloads of our favorite artists. But one day, the music died. What happened?
