Napster Takes On iPod With New, Portable Service

The music-subscription service Napster unveiled a portable version on Wednesday that will allow it to tackle Apple’s popular iPod head-on.

Napster SUCKS! I want to strongly discourage anyone from visiting this site or testing their service. Myself and several others that I have spoken with have experienced the same intentionally misleading pricing model in which they tricked us during the trial period into paying a subscription fee if you did not explicitly cancel the trial within a certain period. I contacted them several times about this via email, which finding the correct dept was quite an undertaking, and we treated with a great deal of disrespect. In the end I was tricked into making a $15 (or something) payment and then wasted several hours of my time just figuring out how to cancel the subscription. Mind you I did not download a single song yet they managed to milk me for about the price of a CD as well as several hours of my time. NAPSTER SUCKS. They are intentionally misleading people and making it difficult to cancel subscriptions.
