[WEB4LIB] Napster announces new company: AppleSoup

[James Huesmann]

I found it fairly amusing to read their press release.  In one spot, it
says:


"These technical advances allow content owners to control, distribute and
even sell their content via AppleSoup’s extremely scalable and viral
peer-to-peer network."

I believe they wanted it to say "virile", as in "energetic or vigorous",
instead of "viral", as in "of, relating to, or caused by a virus".  Or did
they?  Hmmm....
