Napster: The Movie

Cable network MTV on Wednesday announced it has gained the exclusive rights to the life story of the creator of Napster, Shawn Fanning.

"Anything is possible and the fact that he may star as himself hasn't been ruled out," said a spokeswoman for MTV, which is owned by Viacom Inc.



Should be rather interesting to see how the movie turns out, though quite frankly I'm pretty full of Napster already.
