- JohnnyQwest, on 09/15/2008, -3/+92I remember when Napster used to be amazing. Downloading songs in 30 minutes on my 56K...oh the memories.
- treelovinhippie, on 09/16/2008, -3/+61Napster still exists?
- binky79, on 09/16/2008, -2/+41Now Geek Squad can install downloaded music to your MP3 player for just $5 a song!
- MacMan88, on 09/16/2008, -1/+35I remember seeing 4.8KBps and thinking that was an amazing transfer speed..
- nobody98, on 09/16/2008, -4/+31Napster is still alive?
- Jok3r, on 09/16/2008, -2/+26you mean a song
- sockpuppets, on 09/16/2008, -0/+24Napster went under, only the name continued on masquerading as a new service. This isn't the napster you and I remember.
- inactive, on 09/16/2008, -1/+22The sad thing is, that's still my transfer speed. ***** comcast.
- inactive, on 09/15/2008, -9/+30This could be awesome if they keep it DRM-free like Napster. I'd actually probably purchase music online then. Sorry, but I despise iTunes.
- elitedw, on 09/16/2008, -3/+21who uses napster anymore?
- gospe1337, on 09/16/2008, -1/+18In this failing economy, you would think bad business decisions would be less common. Boy, do I have an America Online to sell you!
- kungfumaniac, on 09/16/2008, -0/+14Best Buy got robbed.
- MOates, on 09/16/2008, -1/+13Napster is still worth money?
- stuffradio, on 09/16/2008, -0/+11I'll download the internet on to your computer for $50!
- Princeamor, on 09/16/2008, -0/+11Yup... that will be a story to tell the children!!!
- Sroek, on 09/16/2008, -4/+14Best Buy is behind the curve.
***** Best Buy. - MacSuxWindozSux, on 09/16/2008, -0/+9The name was sold to a larger company who made a new service under the same name, and that company is selling the service to Best Buy.
- jojo77, on 09/16/2008, -1/+8when will people realize Itunes isn't popular because of their MP3s but because of the hardware that plays their MP3s. The hardware is everything.
- koreaski, on 09/16/2008, -0/+7to do what with?
- HookmasterCH47, on 09/16/2008, -0/+7Napster... the next Geek Squad!
- ozodin, on 09/16/2008, -1/+8700k people apparently.
- JGUSMC7, on 09/16/2008, -0/+6Hows that for irony. Shawn Fanning was probably trying to avoid buying CD's at Best Buy when he came up with the idea for Napster...now its owned by them.
- inactive, on 09/15/2008, -5/+11Wow, Napster has come a long way!
- Hazardc, on 09/16/2008, -0/+6you mean, like every other mp3 file in the world?!
- Trigonometron, on 09/16/2008, -0/+6Napster- The reason Phish is attributed to that Gin and Juice cover instead of The Gourds.
- herrshuster, on 09/16/2008, -1/+7are you bitter?
- kjcdude, on 09/16/2008, -0/+6for the 1 or 2 songs i buy each year i use amazon
- astutissimo, on 09/16/2008, -0/+5700k retards
- sockpuppets, on 09/16/2008, -0/+5No.
- MacParrot, on 09/16/2008, -1/+5non-DRMed songs from iTunes is compatible with every player capable of playing aac files...which is most of the better ones. aac format is not owned by Apple but is an open standard
- HookmasterCH47, on 09/16/2008, -0/+4This has been Apple's strategy all along. The software is one thing, but the real money is in the hardware.
- bongfarmer, on 09/16/2008, -1/+5how does Itunes lose money? They don't really have overhead
- JazJon, on 09/16/2008, -0/+4no thanks
- Spuy767, on 09/16/2008, -0/+4@MacParrot: Buried for attempting to be "holier than thou."
- inactive, on 09/16/2008, -0/+4Just put this as a 121 million loss on the books. Napster is over people, get over it. The business model does not work, its not iPod compatible, in short, fail.
- Princeamor, on 09/16/2008, -0/+4and the big word is APPARENTLY...?
- (*)V(*), on 09/16/2008, -0/+4Couldn't they build a "better" online music store of their own for $121 million? I guess they are buying subcribers, but I suspect most are already BB customers.
- inactive, on 09/16/2008, -1/+5Say what you want, but iTunes has a really huge catalog of all kinds of rare songs. If I can't find a song normally, I try iTunes and if they have it, I just pay the dollar to get it.
Cool ***** from africa and india and all over. - MacParrot, on 09/16/2008, -2/+6You seem to be one of those maybe 10 people that still don't understand that whether or not a song has DRM isn't up to Apple but the song's copyright holders.
- Nietz1950, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3I would imagine the bandwidth costs kill them. The popular media sites all seem to burn through money.
- danthemanhan, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3I read the title, and had to ask.... why? 'cause I gotta say, I don't think Napster is worth much, if anything.
- Jpesci, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3I've been a Napster subscriber for about a year and a half now and I think it's great. That said, I'm hoping Best Buy doesn't make any changes for the worse to their policies or their software.
- jamesdew, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3Yes it was a very clever tactic
- fwertz, on 09/15/2008, -3/+6Whoa, Napster is doing something good now?
- jaxcs, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3This venture has fail all over it.
- enantiodromia, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3I remember when napster was just some dork in #rx7 on EFNet :)
- reichg, on 09/16/2008, -1/+3napster sucks since they removed free downloading
