I thought this article was interesting. It's worth a read. Here are a couple of quotes that i didn't know about kazaa.

"Altnet already offers a payment mechanism..."

"when seraching for songs on Kazaa and you get the authorized files on Altnet marked with an orange icon, alongside the regular shares in blue. After downloading an Altnet item, another click gets a license and informs of payments due. "

I guess i might remember those orange icons if i think hard enough.. hehe but i'd just as easily find them for free.

Anyway, interesting article i think. Check it out. http://www.cnn.com/2003/TECH/internet/02/09/sharing.firestorm.ap/index.html
