Music For College Students




I'm not sure when music became essential to college students. I guess they want ot market early on to the students, maybe they'll start with preschoolers soon.

Dell and Napster have teamed up to offer discounted computers, software, and digital music for U.S. college students, in the name of legal Internet music downloading.

The two companies are offering packages that combine Napster's digital music service and software with Dell's hardware, namely blade servers, to "help colleges and universities offer students a legal way to download music files," Dell says in a statement this week.

The Dell-Napster deal is all about discounts, lower rates for students and faculty at academic institutions, as well as ensuring there's enough bandwidth to handle thousands of downloads at a time.
