Hi there, I was thinking of buying the Replay Music (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-audio-stream/Replay-Music-record-any-web-radio-station-or-streaming-music-service.htm) package and was hoping you could give me some advice as to whether Napster have any way of knowing if one of their members is recording tracks from their site? A friend of mine has found he has been billed for purchases that he hasn't made recently after taping tracks with replay and is concerned that they have caught on to subscribers recording tracks from them. I wondered if the tagging technology might be a give away? It's probably totally unrelated but wondered what you think?

Replay Music (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-audio-stream/Replay-Music-record-any-web-radio-station-or-streaming-music-service.htm) records from your sound card, so Napster (http://all-streaming-media.com/downloadable-audio-and-video/Napster-free-music-service.htm) won't be able to track whether you record songs from it or not. Just make recordings for your own use only.

Correct, as far as napster knows, you're just another happy customer listening to their streams and paying them money to do so. :D You're in the clear, record away!
