Napster to provide music to Penn State
11/07/2003 02:05 AM During a panel presentation on peer-to-peer file
sharing at the Educause
conference this morning,
Graham Spanier , President of The
Pennsylvania State University , announced a deal with Napster that will give Penn State
students access to music for $.99 per song downloaded. A Penn State
press release outlines
the way in which the service is expected to work:
• Students living in residence halls at a
dozen Penn State campuses will be able to participate initially.
• Unlimited streaming of music files will be available from
Napster’s inventory of more than 500,000 songs.
• Tethered downloading is included at no additional charge.
This means a student can download and keep the music files on up to
three personal computers. These songs can be burned to CDs or
transferred to portable devices if purchased for 99 cents each.
Penn State plans to roll out a pilot of the program
beginning in January. The deal is being promoted as a way to provide
students with the ability to download music legally while addressing
issues of bandwidth overload.

06/16/2004 10:45 PMSteve Jobs has admitted in the past that Apple isn't looking to make
money off of iTunes. Instead, they view
iTunes
as a loss leader for selling more iPods - where they make their
real margin. So, it's a bit surprising that Roxio appears to be going
in the other direction. They're now
giving away an MP3
player to anyone who signs up for one year of Napster. Of course,
it's a cheap MP3 player with only 128 megs of storage, but the concept
is still the same.

Napster: From Trading Music To Trading
on the Stock Exchange
09/19/2004 09:28 AMLike a phoenix from the ashes, Napster has come back not once, but
twice it seems. Since Roxio bought the Napster name and logo a couple
years ago at a bankruptcy auction, Napster received a new "lease
on life". This time around Napster isn't just a service, it's to
become a public company and will be traded on the stock exchange.
Roxio has recently sold off it's CD-burning software business in a
move to concentrate solely on selling music online. Using Napster as
it's company name, it will allow Roxio to compete with other online
music delivery services from the likes of Microsoft, Yahoo!, and
Apple.
Roxio's sale of its software business landed them a cool $80 million
in cash and stocks which will give Napster a cash base of more than
$100 million once the deal closes, expected by year's end.
"One of the most important questions for our investors is, 'Does
Napster have the staying power to stay and thrive?' Having the cash
answers that question," said Chris Gorog, chief executive and
chairman of Roxio.
It will be more than enough to cover Napster until it becomes
profitable, Gorog said, "and we're on a clear path to do
that."
