The new Napster plans are a pretty darn good deal.
Long as you keep paying.Did you not read the offer?

For $5 you get 5 non-DRM MP3 tracks that you keep permanently, and unlimited access to their streaming library. Yeah, if you quit paying you lose access to the library, but you are no worse off than if you had dropped that $5 at iTunes or Amazon at $0.99/song.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Napster-22559237 Tue, 16 Jun 2009 10:42:14 EDT Re: Napster http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Napster-22558530 said by dvd536:

I had Napster a few years ago and this is what got me. I don't spend $9.99/month or even $5.99/month solely on music. I may purchase 1 or 2 songs a month, but I can see how this would be a great deal for heavy music listeners.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Napster-22558530 Tue, 16 Jun 2009 08:16:47 EDT Re: Napster http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Napster-22558272 said by espaeth:

Is everything that is available via search available as a downloadable MP3 track?
I had a subscription a while ago, and all the songs I got were 128k bitrate. I wish they were at 320k, might have changed but I don't think so.The purchased tracks are 256kbps CBR MP3s.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Napster-22558146 Tue, 16 Jun 2009 04:12:30 EDT Re: Napster http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Napster-22557683 said by funchords:

The only gotcha with the $5 plan is your 5 downloads expire every month if you don't use them. For that reason I signed up with the 12 month plan, you get 70 download credits (60 standard + 10 bonus) and you get a year to burn through them.

I just checked out Napster with two groups that I thought I might not find (The Blenders and Cadence) -- they're there! I'm impressed!Yeah, their library is surprisingly complete. There has been little I've been unable able to find in their library -- even what I would consider to be somewhat obscure stuff like short orchestral / choir scores like The Immediate - Trailerhead disc. (scores written to be used in movie trailers, awesome for making videos)

When I was in Vegas last year I was given tickets to Cirque Du Soleil Mystere, and even the live CD from that show was up for download on Napster.

Yeah, everything you can search on is available to be downloaded / purchased from Napster. The only minor frustration is that some songs are only streamable as 30 second clips due to record label shenanigans, but all those tracks remain purchasable either for $0.99/ea or one of the track credits.

The only gotcha with the $5 plan is your 5 downloads expire every month if you don't use them.

Isn't Napster like $9.99 a month for ALL labels?$5 a month for streaming audio, and that includes 5 MP3 downloads a month for songs you can permanently own.
