Former Top Music Exec Says Napster Cannot be Stopped

from the well,-duh dept

Frank Biondi Jr., the former head of Universal and Viacom was quoted as saying “Napster can’t be ignored or destroyed. It’s an incredible search engine, and there’s a large core of Internet users out there that think free is the right price.” Well, it’s good to see someone might be getting it. Too bad he’s not a chief exec there any more.
