Launch Napster

More info on the Napster Blog. Looks like it's US-only and this pricing does not include devices. For that, you need Napster To Go, which is still $15 a month and, curiously, does not appear to offer any free MP3s each month.

Also, according to the actual site, "The $5 dollar monthly subscription is a special offer – get it while you can." It will jump to $7 a month after that.
