Do you remember when downloading a single song to your desktop computer took literal hours?
Are you a fan of teenagers inventing illegal technology?
If you still have burned CD mixes that you downloaded from your Napster playlist, you might be a Xennial. And we are too.
Katie and Dani share their own experience using Napster from 1999 - 2001 and talk about how the platform paved the way for modern streaming giants like Spotify and Apple Music.
And decide for yourself just HOW illegal it actually was -- and what music artists actually liked having Napster share their songs.
