Napster wasn't just a file-sharing service; it was the infinite digital jukebox. And it was free. It's sad that soon after it was invented, it was sued. While today everybody recognises it as the Pioneer for making digital music stores possible.

Without Napster we'd still be forced to buy entire albums or whatever broadcast radio wanted to play.
