Dirty trick could doom Napster

http://cgi.zdnet.com/slink?43225:8430877

While the record industry cries foul over copyrighted MP3s
downloaded through Napster, a simple scheme might throw a monkey
wrench into the music file-sharing phenomenon. Decoy files--
resembling songs commonly available via Napster, but incomplete
and sonically vandalized-- lurk within the controversial program's
distributed network, waiting to annoy unsuspecting music seekers.
Can sabotage slow Napster's growth?
