Report: some Napster users share
passwords to save money 04/09/2005 03:30 AM
Xeni Jardin: An article in the Register today reports that it is possible for more than one person to share a username/password simultaneously on Napster's digital music service, so they don't have to pay for separate accounts.

Over the past couple of days MusicAlly has run several tests, during which we were able to download and stream simultaneously from four separate computers across two separate Internet connections for good stretches of time. Our findings so far suggest this situation is the same whether we use a trial account, a paid-for credit card account or the £14.95 Napster To Go service. By comparison, several other Internet subscription services, including Real's Rhapsody, log the first user out automatically if a second user logs in using the same username and password.

Arguably the fact that one of the subsequent users could order one of Napster's paid-for permanent downloads, thus adding a charge to the original user's card, provides a small disincentive against sharing usernames and passwords. But Napster requires users to insert their credit card security number before making a major purchase, such as the upgrade from the £9.95 service to Napster To Go. What's more, the credit card numbers themselves are not exposed on the accounts page, so there's no danger of having your card details ripped off by someone with whom you're sharing the music service.

Internet Week reports that while Microsoft is working to “protect” users from viruses and spyware, there is little it can do for those that are already affected. It is great to see Microsoft take an active stance regarding spyware and virus removal, but how about spending some those billions on the mainstream media so that the non-techies have a chance to learn that Service Pack 2 even exists. Most people I deal with don’t even…

General concepts in security escape most end users, pointy-haired bosses, and other decision-makers, and even some junior administrators. While the more senior technologists may not ever hope to get them to relate to the finer points of DMZs and VLANs, we should at least continue to push and educate in the area of passwords.

Of the many beauties of research on the Internet, one of the most useful is the ability to comment and correct information, says Greg R. Notess, reference librarian at Montana State University. For example, most computer software documentation -- printed or online -- is not especially well written or comprehensive. True, better documentation is well-organized and goes into some depth on the program capabilities and features, but such documentation can't include all possible errors or anticipate all questions. MySQL -- an open-source database software -- offers an interactive online manual (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mys ql/en/) that invites user corrections and annotations. Notess says this and other features of online queries -- particularly the divers answers to simple queries -- mean researchers must retrain themselves to dig more deeply into the Web, look more broadly at the range of answers and search for the combination of resources that gives a more "knowledgeable" answer. "Much of that retraining involves looking at comments critically, to track links in both directions, to seek out divergent views, and to evaluate much of the content based on the Internet's information cycle rather than the print information cycle," he says. This has been added to the articles section of Deep Web Research Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.
