Rhapsody to acquire Napster
by Volker Weber
Rhapsody, one of the oldest Web subscription music services, has made it official. The company has acquired Napster subscribers and other assets from Best Buy, while the electronics retailer will obtain a minority stake in Rhapsody, the companies said today.
I am using Napster on Sonos. Rhapsody is not available in Germany. Let's hope they don't sack Napster here.
Comments
I use the US Rhapsody and the German Napster service. Both are better than Spotify. Rhapsody has the best UI, music exploration features and Sonos integration in my opinion. i like the historical Top 100 on Napster though.
If they use Rhapsody clients with localized Napster content it would be a win win
