Searched for Steve Jobs, didn't see anything, probably a repost anyways.
Jobs' jab alerts music industry execs; Napster responds in kind

Tribune Newspapers: Los Angeles Times
Published February 19, 2005

If you want to spread bad news about Napster Inc., just tell Steve Jobs.

The Apple Computer Inc. chief executive sent an e-mail Tuesday morning to top record industry executives, alerting them to a security gap in Napster's music service--a rival to Apple's iTunes online store.

"Thought you should know if you haven't heard about this," Jobs wrote.

The e-mail directed the executives to a Web page detailing how to convert Napster's rental tunes into permanent downloads that can be burned onto CDs. The page urges people to sign up for a free trial of Napster and copy as much music as possible before canceling.

Napster CEO Chris Gorog sent the labels a retort Tuesday afternoon, arguing that such copying programs were neither new nor a problem only for Napster. Such programs are time-consuming because they "essentially work like a tape recorder," converting files as they play, Gorog said.

By contrast, he said, it is "trivial" to download a free program that circumvents Apple's anti-piracy software and unlocks "a large collection of iTunes music in seconds." He provided the Web address of a site that supplied such a program.

Neither Apple nor Napster would comment on the e-mail exchange.

It's probably similar to how the NY Times does it. If link is from Google (or other search engines I imagine), they don't prompt you to log in.

Meh, it'd be more "beat 'em when they're down" style to let napster and iTunes fight it out for a few years then buy them both when they are one big mess... then just flush both of them and FINALLY launch their own version.
