Napster Deal 11/07/2003 03:13 AM
This 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).

Penn State Does Deal To Provide Sort Of
Free Music Streams To Students 11/05/2003 09:23 PM
Well, it's a step, but it's not as big a deal as some are going to make it out to be. Over at Penn State they've been talking about this idea for a while, but they've now signed a deal with Roxio's Napster 2.0 to provide "free" music streams to students on campus. They're really hyping up the whole free bit, but I'm quite sure the music industry is still getting paid from someone - and that someone is Penn State. So, while it may appear free, the price will get added into tuition or other fees. Meanwhile, the offering is nice, but it's not real file sharing. It's not even downloads. They just allow streaming music for what Napster happens to have in its library. If they want more, they're out of luck. If they want to download or burn to a CD, they have to pay. Of course, this doesn't exactly fit with the MPAA's educational campaign of "if you didn't buy it, you stole it". If anything, this sort of thing might confuse the message. That said, I still think it's good that there's at least some recognition for alternative business models, even if I'm not sure this is a particularly good one.

Penn State, Napster Ink Pact

Penn State, Napster Ink Pact 11/06/2003 07:21 PM
Penn State students will receive a free subscription to Napster as a way of curtailing illegal music downloads on campus. The deal could pave the way for similar services at other schools. By Katie Dean.

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.

Penn State begins free music download
service for students 01/18/2004 02:46 PM

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.

Of Education At Penn State

Entertainment Industry Gets In The Way
Of Education At Penn State 05/20/2004 04:00 PM
Penn 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.

Wireless Watch Japan is reporting that Sony has partnered with Korean internet provider KT Corp. to offer internet service for the PSP via the company's 14,000 hotspots. It's not unexpected, of course, but that pretty much cinches it for any nay-sayers: the PSP is going to get a proper web browser, and soon. So not only will the PSP be a mobile gaming rig, an easy video platform, and an MP3 player, it'll also be a down-and-dirty internet machine. And once the keyboards begin hitting the shelf, we'll have ourselves quite a little unit for $250.
