music problems
:radio: i got a 30 day free trial from napster..i downloaded lots of songs and then my trial period was over. but now that my trial is over, i cant listen to my songs anymore. everytime i open the music file, it says "acquiring license" and then doesnt do anything. also, the songs i put on my mp3 player wont play. is there anyway around this so i can listen to my music?
what I would do is get another free trial and a packet scanner( personally i use etherdetect and nab a serial from andr.net) and download a song. open that song up with the scanner running and see what nice traffic comes up. note the outgoing port and the incoming data. try on a few different songs to see if it always gets the same data packet back, if it does simply write a program to listen on the outgoing port and send that packet back, otherwise you'll have to analzye the outgoing packet and determine what the diffence is between the outgoing and the incoming and incorperate that into your program. this will only work on your computer, no clue how this rolls with mp3's or whatever, but this will allow you to use it on your computer for longer than just that trial period.
