Napster is taking action after Ohio University gave some indication of how much it charges universities to offer music access - a survey distributed by the university suggested the cost would be $3 per person per month. Napster has insisted that universities not disclose the terms of such contracts and called Ohio "and said we should not publicize the details or discuss our contract." I'm not sure secret contracts are in the best interestes of consumers, and they are certainly not in the best interests of universities. The $3 a month charge only covers listening to songs - students will still have to pay 99 cents in order to move the song to a portable device. And they call file sharers pirates.
