Ask and you shall receive. An online music provider known has Ruckus.com has become very popular among college campuses across the country. All it asks is that you have a valid school email ending in .edu to any college or university and then you are set to download all the music you want. The company has software to download and the only downside is that it is protected content which means PC only and no burning but other than that you can download not only music but video as well including television shows and movies. I have been using the service for about 6 months now and it is an awesome program. When new albums come out you can be the first to download them and check them out the minute they come out. The whole focus of the company is to help students cut back on illegally downloading music. Here is an article from ZDnet on the apparrent success and views of Ruckus.com.

This website sounds freaking awesome. If I didn't involve myself with a million other programs and websites I would definitely check it out. I agree with the article's statement that most college students listen to music on their PC. For example, I'm actually listening to music right now (Matisyahu "King without a crown/Live").
I also like how the website aims to get college students off illegal file sharing. I think the website will do well in the future.
The student has a one to many "(1:N)" crossfoot with the website. The 1 represents the student and the N represents the files the student can download.

Cool!!!! No more Limewire and fake songs! Thanks!
