Napster has been sued by the record labels for aiding in wholesale copyright infringement. Judge Patel earlier this year ordered the site to immediately take the copyrighted songs off the site. At that hearing, she threatened to shut down the popular site if it cannot comply with her order. The judge has appointed a technical adviser to help her determine if Napster is doing everything it can to keep those songs offline. WebNoize, an Internet consultancy, is scheduled to release a study early next week that shows a continued decline in Napster usage as it screens popular titles from its site.
