摘要

It should come as no surprise that Napster and other free Internet services that allow their users to share files containing such things as recorded music have got copyright holders reaching for their lawyers. Indeed, the Record Industry Association of America (riaa) is now dragging Napster through the courts to try to shut it down (a final decision is expected in late September). But the users of such systems—at least those who make their files freely available—might soon get angry, too. For a study by Eytan Adar and Bernardo Huberman, who work at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Centre in California, sug gests that most of the inhabitants of this bit of cyberspace are not altruists concerned with the common good, but "leeches" who suck up files without making their own available in exchange.
