(2012, HD, 106m) dir Alex Winter. In the age of iTunes and Spotify, the heated controversy over Napster seems like ancient history. In 1998, Shawn Fanning, a teenage hacker and programmer, created the code that would become the basis for all peer-to-peer file sharing. In 1999, Fanning and his business partner, fellow teenager Sean Parker, launched the file-sharing service Napster. What had begun as a largely unknown underground distribution medium erupted into a full-blown global revolution. “Downloaded” explores this revolution from its genesis to its peak, and explains Napster’s downfall.
