Napster: The Music. The Battle. The Revolution.
2013 · 1h 46m · Not Rated
Documentary
Directed by
Alex Winter
A documentary that explores the downloading revolution; the kids that created it, the bands and the businesses that were affected by it, and its impact on the world at large.
Top critics, in their words
As you watch the film, you'll be amazed how the world of the Internet turns the recent into the ancient: In a matter of only a few years, a world-changing digital event like Napster has become so last century.
I found myself asking, "And so why am I being retold this hoary tale?"
As iffy as the coulda-been premise is, "Downloaded" is still a vigorous retelling of Fanning's and Parker's wildfire achievement and its ethical pitfalls ...
Winter can't get his arms around his material. He seems reluctant to pare anything, and his talking techie heads - Napster founders Shawn Fanning and Sean Parker, along with a host of others - often make the same points, one after another.
An independent Napster may be gone, but its impact reverberates, not least in the continuing threat to intellectual property.
