Kazaa? Dead? Is this true?

[Angoid]

Just having a look at a C programming forum, where someone has posted that KaZaA is as good as dead.

Here's the link.

I'd be interested to follow that discussion and see what they know about it - this is the first I've heard about this development.

Hmm.. I can't seem to access their site? I hope that kazaa is really dead

I hope they're gone too..... One less point of infection.

My thought exactly!! But at least the bundled KaZaA infections were amongst the easier ones to remove....

Here's what the BBC say about it.

In Holland it was at the radio a few days ago.

They said something like:
KaZaA now became a legal download service. Only songs that really haven't got copyrights or something can be downloaded for free.

I think that results in a dead KaZaA because nobody will pay KaZaA for downloading songs with rights...
