Do you remember Napster?

In 1999, Napster was for me, in one word, Amazing.  Suddenly I could download pretty much any MP3 I ever wanted, free and (relatively) quickly.  I would spend days hunting down entire catalogues and my hard drives quickly filled with the music I thought I wanted.  Nine years later, and the necessity of actually having to download the tunes is disappearing. With the ubiquity of in browser flash players like the Hype Machine, and now Grooveshark, there really isn’t any need to download the tune.  Play pretty much any tune you want, right in your browser, on demand.  Nap-what?
