Just used the new Napster, bought an old Frank Zappa recording. (Hot Rats) It seemed to work good. I burned it to disc and it came out fine. Has anybody else used this, and if so, can you access your tracks other than using Napster? I just ripped the burned disc so I had MP3s on my computer. Many great selections on there.

I looked at Napster the other day and didn't see enough country to keep me interested. Seems as though everything is geared toward hip hop.

Well, I found Buddy's "Steel Guitar Jazz" on there. I wasn't really checking for a lot of country, but they have a lot of jazz.

You can get "Steel Guitar Jazz" on CD from the Forum catalog. Plus it includes 14 more Emmons tracks that weren't on the original LP. It's a reissue of Tom Bradshaw's Steel Guitar Record Club double LP. Order item #A-056-CD, $20 postpaid.

| I use it (the new Napster) a bit. The thing that I like about it is being able to pick single tracks and not having to buy the whole album. I'd like to see more classic country, though. |

| Try BearShare. This is similar to Napster, but has a lot of country tunes. I think bearshare.com will get you there. |

| The tough thing for the pay-to-purchase Napster service is the same as Apple Itunes music store had at first: they have to hammer out licensing and payment agreements with the labels. I think the likelihood is that hip hoppish stuff is more aware of the techno-savvy consumer, and has them as a more important part of the customer base... country labels may just be giving the services a hard time about licensing the rights for sale one piece at a time. |
