Napster has launched its anticipated MP3 music store, bringing the service a bit closer to its roots. But you know, without the piracy.
Now Napster customers have two options. You can sign up for a subscription based service that lets you listen to any of 6 million songs for a monthly fee. But if you stop paying, your music disappears. Thanks DRM. Or you can individually buy any of those 6 million songs in the DRM-free MP3 format.
Napster’s content partners include all four major music labels and a large library of tracks from independent artists and labels. Each song carries a 99 cent price tag, comes with album art, and a relatively high bitrate. Most songs are encoded at 256kbps or higher.
