College students not falling for free subscriptions
It seems as though College students haven't drank away their IQs after all: TechDirt is reporting that free music subscription programs (from the likes of Napster and company) on university campuses aren't taking off. It appears that restrictions – such as losing all of your music when you terminate membership, not being able to burn the tracks to CD or transfer them to a DAP (let alone an iPod) – are causing students to stick with the more popular music distribution methods such as the iTMS and P2P.
I guess these programs should have taken notice when students started cherishing their iPods more than their beer.
