With Cable TV at M.I.T., Who Needs Napster?

Two students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have  
developed a system for sharing music within their campus community that  
they say can avoid the copyright battles that have pitted the music  
industry against many customers.

The students, Keith Winstein and Josh Mandel, drew the idea for their  
campus-wide network from a blend of libraries and from radio. Their  
effort, the Libraries Access to Music Project, which is backed by  
M.I.T. and financed by research money from the  Microsoft Corporation,  
will provide music from some 3,500 CD's through a novel source: the  
university's cable television network.

Students devise way to get free music

BOSTON, Oct. 27 (UPI) --     Tired of the legal wrangling over music  
sharing, two Massachusetts Institute of Technology students in Boston  
have devised a campus music library.

Record industry accusations and litigation over the copyright  
violations of shared music are bypassed by the MIT system that instead  
of using digital computer technology uses analog to distribute 3,500  
CDs via the campus cable television network.
