  Court Says Napster Must Stop But Service is Still Alive
Time: 14:44 EST/19:44 GMT | News Source: Associated Press | Posted By: Robert Stein

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Napster Inc. must stop allowing the millions of music fans who use its Internet-based service to share copyrighted material, a federal appeals court ruled Monday.

In a ruling that Napster officials had said could force the file-swapping clearinghouse to shut down, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Napster must prevent users from gaining access to copyrighted content through the lists of songs archived by its users.

``This is a clear victory. The court of appeals found that the injunction is not only warranted, but required. And it ruled in our favor on every legal issue presented,'' said Hilary Rosen, president and CEO of the Recording Industry Association of America.
