Ruckus music subscription program fails to cause excitement at American University - Engadget - www.engadget.com

Ruckus music subscription program fails to cause excitement at American University - Engadget - www.engadget.com: "In the latest trial, American University students were given a free trial of Ruckus, a movie and music downloading program. A full half of them didn�t even bother to try it, and a third of those surveyed said it should definitely not be offered in the coming academic year. "

Ouch. Not sure what the problem is here... maybe too many of them still stealing their songs, or perhaps many are already locked into an iPod (not compatible with any service other than iTunes)? I've never seen the Ruckus service in person, so I don't know how it competes against Napster, but I would assume that they would have the same problems.
