Washington - Digital music industry veteran Jim Griffin says that "tens of thousands" of students have signed up to pay for a proposed legal peer-to-peer file-sharing network, called Choruss, that would be offered at U.S. universities, The Register reported. Griffin told attendees of the World Copyright Summit in DC that Choruss intends to test pricing schemes at schools this year, before approaching ISPs with data on how users respond to the music service. "The plan is to use next school year to run tests and experiments," Griffin said. "We've had students tell us it's worth $20 a month -- to share what they want to share."
