            Maybe you don't know the right people, or maybe it's just me. ;)
    I don't know anyone who uses Napster to download full albums. Most of
    the people I know who use Napster use it to find a song that they
    suddenly feel like hearing or to listen to other songs by a band they
    heard on the radio. Sometimes that translates to CD sales and sometimes
    it doesn't depending on how well they like the other songs.
