Update: Napster To Go Round 2
Wednesday, February 09, 2005
Ok, I was right the 1st time with the $9.95 a month and additional $14.95 for the "to go" service a month. Also I found out how they will keep u paying for your rented music. So we are back to the $298.80 a year for your music and if you don't keep paying the man, its gone in 30 days.

This is how “Napster to Go” works. For $14.95 a month, an individual can download an unlimited amount of music tracks. The music is then transferable to a choice of three portable music players; the iRiver, Creative Zen Micro or the Dell Pocket DJ. But here is the catch. In order to qualify for Napster to Go, you must already be a subscriber to Napster – an additional $9.95 a month.
Ok, so $24.90 a month is not so bad, at least one can download an unlimited amount of music to keep right? Not so fast…An interesting quirk regarding Napster to Go is that an individual must maintain their subscription with Napster. Every thirty days or less, the individual must plug their “compatible” player into their computer; allow it to link up with Napster’s server, which gives the DRM tracks an additional 30 days of life. Don’t maintain your Napster subscription? *Poof* - your 14.95 dollar downloads are gone with the wind.
