On January 12, the University of Pennsylvania began
providing its on campus student body free access to Napster 2.0's subscription
music service through a campus-wide contract with Napster. The contract allows students to listen to
streaming audio or "tethered downloads" for free. (Tethered downloads
are downloaded music files that will only play as long as the user
maintains a subscription to Napster, or in this case, as long as the
student remains at Penn State.) Alternately, students can pay 99¢ a
track to burn songs to disk or transfer them to a mp3 player.
According to the
Chronicle of Higher Education (subscription required) other
schools are watching the experiment
closely to see if the availability of free legal music downloads will
reduce illegal file sharing on campus. As part of the contract,
Napster has provided local caching servers for about 90 percent of the
most requested songs which is expected to improve performance and
reduce network congestion. According to Penn State Live , almost
3000 students (of 17,000 eligible students) registered for the service
on the first day, streaming or downloading about 100,000 songs. No
network congestion was reported.

Napster to provide music to Penn State
11/07/2003 02:05 AM During a panel presentation on peer-to-peer file
sharing at the Educause
conference this morning,
Graham Spanier , President of The
Pennsylvania State University , announced a deal with Napster that will give Penn State
students access to music for $.99 per song downloaded. A Penn State
press release outlines
the way in which the service is expected to work:
• Students living in residence halls at a
dozen Penn State campuses will be able to participate initially.
• Unlimited streaming of music files will be available from
Napster’s inventory of more than 500,000 songs.
• Tethered downloading is included at no additional charge.
This means a student can download and keep the music files on up to
three personal computers. These songs can be burned to CDs or
transferred to portable devices if purchased for 99 cents each.
Penn State plans to roll out a pilot of the program
beginning in January. The deal is being promoted as a way to provide
students with the ability to download music legally while addressing
issues of bandwidth overload.

11/07/2003 03:13 AMThis probably wasn't what administrators at Penn State were expecting
after working out the deal to let on-campus students
acces
s Napster music streams without charge to the students. Instead
of being happy, many Penn State students are
pisse
d off at administrators for wasting their money. Despite the Penn
State claims that the service is "free", clearly the university is
paying for the service, and those fees will be reflected in tuition -
or at least, they'll be withheld from something else on campus. The
students say they don't want to be
forced to pay money to a
recording industry they don't agree with, who is giving them something
of extremely limited value (no downloads, just a limited choice of
streams - and only if you happen to be on campus).

Entertainment Industry Gets In The Way
Of Education At Penn State
05/20/2004 04:00 PMPenn State University has a cozy relationship with the RIAA - and it
shows in a variety of policies they've put in place which seem
designed more to appease their RIAA friends than to encourage
education or a real analysis of issues. They were one of the first
universities to
kick
students off the university network when it was discovered they
had set up a local area system for exchanging files. Then, of course,
they put in place the somewhat useless (and
mostly
unwanted) plan to
take
student funds to pay Napster so that students can get streaming
music which they don't get to keep and which only works on campus.
Now, Ed Felten reports that the university has
forbidden
any student from operating any kind of server from a dorm.
Despite the fact that it seems clear that whoever came up with this
policy doesn't seem to know what a server is, Felten points out just
how terrible this is from an education standpoint. They're preventing
students from learning about important and useful technologies just
because there's a
chance that students may use a server to
infringe on copyrights. In other words the
risk of
infringement outweighs the benefits of education to the administration
at Penn State.

06/07/2004 03:43 PMMacCentral - Apple Computer Inc. CEO Steve Jobs on Monday aimed to
further solidify his company's hold on the digital music market with
the release of AirPort Express, a tiny mobile 802.11g-based wireless
networking base station available in July for US$129 that comes
equipped with a combination analog and digital audio connector. The
announcement came at the "D: All Things Digital" conference in San
Diego. AirPort Express will act as a portable 802.11g base station for
traveling, but when used at home, will also connect consumers' home
stereos with their iTunes Music Library.

So Free iPods, right?
Apparently there's a sort of multi-level-marketing promotion through
the site FreeiPods.com, who will give you a free iPod mini, 15GB iPod,
or $250 iTunes gift certificate for signing up for one of their
"online offers," like signing up for AOL Broadband or Ancestry.com.
The idea is, of course, that after six people have signed up (you and
five people you refer) they'll get enough kickback from the
participating companies to pay for your iPod.
So Andru at GearLive has figured out a way to make the Free iPod
process a little easier. We'll explain how after the jump.
