Actually, I think Napster hit when college students had PCs (and ethernet) in their dorms. Kazaa hit when broadband started to get popular. Good point, though

  That's great. You've changed the way I think about that. Napster was peeking in 2001 and I was incredibly inspired by the platform. As a photo geek with broadband (for 3-4 years by then) I figured it was a perfect fit...until I realized that my target market (grandparents, parents, siblings) mostly had dial-up. It really caught me off guard. I'll start looking for waves that hit specific groups with certain attitudes/goals. For example, the "selfish elites with ipads" rather than just "ipad owners".
