Napster legt zich niet zomaar neer bij het besluit van de rechter. Napster meldt dat ze in hoger beroep zullen gaan. Napster zal vandaag bij het 'Court of Appeals' toestemming vragen om tot de uitslag van het beroep in de lucht te mogen blijven.
We will appeal the Judge's ruling to the Court of Appeals and will ask the Court of Appeals this morning to stay the Judge's order during the appeal.
If we do not get a stay, then we have until midnight Friday to comply with the Judge's order. Although we strongly and firmly disagree with the Judge's decision, we will comply with that decision if it is not stayed.
The Judge's ruling is essentially this: that one-to-one non-commercial file sharing violates the law. [break] Ook worden de Napster-fans op de homepage van Napster opgeroepen om Napster te steunen. Dit kunnen ze doen d.m.v. het sturen van een mailtje naar de grote platenzaken en door het kopen van cd's van bands die Napster steunen.[/break] We're getting a lot of questions about what people can do to help. Here are three things you can do right away.
1. Write the heads of the major record companies and tell them you are their best customers - loyal and active music fans -- and that you don't want them to kill Napster. Here's a link to their emails.
2. Show the companies your power. We're calling for a two-day "buy-cott" this weekend. Support the artists who support Napster by going out and buying their CDs. Click here for a list. Be sure to let the record store know you came from Napster.
