Napster Signs Six Univs

Read the story below about Napster signing on GWU…now it has officially announced that agreement and 5 other universities.

Among them: Cornell University, Middlebury College in Vermont, University of Miami, The University of Southern California and the Wright State University (Ohio) will all work with Napster to create campus-specific programs providing their students access to the online music service.

Essentially, the online subscription service will be complimentary to the students, but downloads would cost as normal: 99 cents.

Penn State University and University of Rochester were the first to join Napster’s university program this past winter. “Based on the success of the program at Penn State”, the school will expand the offering this fall so students at all 23 campuses can participate.

Several of the schools plan to activate a separate auxiliary program to offer Napster to alumni, parents, faculty and staff.

Napster has been working closely with Sony-led “Campus Action Network” (CAN), an initiative dedicated to facilitating the introduction of safe, legitimate digital music services to the campus environment.
