About

Napster was a pioneering peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing service that launched in 1999. It revolutionized the distribution of digital media, particularly music, by allowing users to share files directly with each other over the internet. The platform's rapid growth and subsequent legal battles significantly impacted the music industry and the broader landscape of digital content sharing.
