Napster Launches MP3 Download Store

May 21st, 2008 · No Comments · Industry News

I’m thinking it’s a little late.  Napster would have been revolutionary with this had it come out five years ago.  Now, they are just another in a series of stores like this and this isn’t really big news.  I’d still sell on there, of course, but it’s not that big of a deal in music biz news.  It’s good that they are branching out and away from the subscription model, which I loath.  If all the download or subscription stores started offering eMusic-type subscriptions (where you pay $x for so many songs per month), then I think they’d make even more money, but apparently no one is that creative or daring just yet.
