Napster of Puppets
(oh, this is too easy.)
End your cash-in play
R. I. double A,
I'll find your song's reproduction
Songs compressed but clear
Sucking bandwidth dear
Reading in your search instruction
Listen you will see
freedom's all you need
I'm dedicated to
how I'm freeing you
Downloading faster
The way is Napster
Your songs burn faster
No pay with Napster
Napster
Napster of puppets I'm stealing your song
Unwilling, you're mine! I know that it's wrong
Robbed blind by me, you can't sell a thing
Just type my name, and I'll find your song
Napster
Napster
Just type my name, and I'll find your song

Never have to pay whoever you betray
Now your song's becoming clearer
Slain monopoly, virtual enemy
Got your next hit from a mirror
Listen you will see
freedom's all you need
I'm dedicated to
how I'm freeing you

Napster, Napster, where's the song that I've been after?
Napster, Napster, tell me where it lies
Laughter, laughter, of those you would go after,
Laughter, laughter, laughing at your cries
Rip me!
Is it worth all that? Napster's where it's at!
Why spend a dime without a reason?
Never spending pays! Thrift a hundred ways!
Might be crime but it's so pleasin'
I will not deny!
I will help supply!
I will download you!
Now they hear you too!

(This isn't an opinion piece, just a parody, though I think I outdid myself on this one, it's nearly enough to make me form a band and call it "GnutellicA", heh, if only I could play the guitar part for this... :)
If you're into this sort of thing, you might want to take the time to notice how neatly most of the rhymes and even the structure of each line matches up with the corresponding line in Master of Puppets.

Update, Sep 17, 2000: For more fun, try a Google search for "Napster of Puppets", there seem to be a lot of these parodies floating around the net. Haven't found one that predates
mine, (or one that's as good) though. There is at least
one MP3 out there called "Napster of Puppets".
