I have to admit that I did find it strange how DNA didn't really mention Napster and how that affects things. Especially considering all the nesheadlines that Napster is getting thes days.
There was a brief mention, if my memory serves me right. But considering how much of an effect it's having, really enough.
But at least the contrast was made to copying tapes for friends, and how after a few you'd turn round and tell them to go buy the record. And with Napster, how often do up/dowloads get stopped because people don't want to give their bandwidth over to someone else?

What I want to know is, is Auntie going to repeat this series, or better still, turn it into a TV series? (Hang on, isn't that how h2g2 started in the first place???) If it is to be repeated, I would sooner hear the whole thing from the beginning, rather than try to pick it up on the second episode, because some idiot forgot to listen to the first one!!!!!

I believe that the BBC have it accessable as a Real Audio file, and that h2g2 are going to keep it available to download.
