Advantages: Free Music

Disadvantages: Current court battles

Rumour has it that Napster is going to solve its monetry problems by charging for its service. As you will know very well, Napster is faced with a lots of legal battles and Charges which if they go through could ruin the company and Napster could be another dot com business to bite the dust.

To get round all this Napster is set to Charge for its service. Maybe to pay the record companies a sum of money to keep them sweet. That is only speculation but to me seems like a logical reason for doing it. If this goes through it could get the support of some of the comapines and Napster could still live on.

The charge they seem to be planning is not set that high, infact its only about £3 per month. I for one do not mind in the slightest paying that amount of money to access to all the songs I will even want to listen to. And if it means that Napster will stay alive then I am all for it.

Allthough nothing has been confirmed, I think if something like this doesnt get sorted out then Napster will be history because to many powerfull companies are against it at the moment.
