(reg. req.): “Subscribers of the new Napster would pay $10 a month to play an unlimited number of songs from an Internet jukebox or download ‘tethered’ versions to be played when they’re not online. It would cost about $1 to move a tethered song to a portable device or burn it onto a CD.
By this time next year, Napster executives hope to enhance the service by allowing subscribers to move an unlimited number of songs onto selected portable devices and take them wherever they go. But that depends on Microsoft delivering the necessary technology.
