Title: [2014-01-21] CNN: Bitcoin is not just digital currency. It's Napster for finance Post by: runam0k on January 21, 2014, 04:45:19 PM Not the best titles, but a great article.

Probably one of the best articles I've read in recent times. And the author himself notes that Napster isn't the best analogy. But not many of his readers would understand P2P, so I think he used Napster deliberately. Everyone associates Napster with bringing down the music industry. You should repost this under the discussion section so that it gets a wider audience.
