    @Nick: so far it looks great. behaves well. only complaint so far is that the app stops playing when my screen turns off and phone will go into sleep mode. you can set Slacker to keep the screen on, but i would like the screen off and Slacker to keep playing. oh, and my other complaint is that Dane Cook was playing on the comedy top station. DANE COOK SUCKS #android

    I will probably buy this in June when I get a Droid. I refuse to pay 550.00 for a droid or 450.oo for the eris so I'll wait until my contract is up in June. #android

    @Crazy_Talk: It's just referring to the free, ad-supported accounts vs. the paid, more customizable, ad-free subscription accounts (which are well worth the $47.88/yr). Slacker is SO much better than the wasteland that XM/Sirius has become.

    Why are they releasing a free IPhone app, when they have overpriced gadgetry to sell??? They could at least charge a little for the app.

    I just don't get some business decisions...

    @tylerstyle: the only people who can make use of the app are people who buy the overpriced hardware, so it builds brand loyalty for existing customers. The main purpose however is to reduce the cost to the potential buyer - someone might be tempted to get a Sonos system if they knew they only had to spend $350 instead of $700.

    Wait. Is this article is sent from the future?


    LOS ANGELES - MAY 19, 2009 - Napster, the pioneer of digital music, today unveiled its latest music offering

    Today is the 18th, isn't it? *checks calendar*

    I think this is pretty good. It is like buying 5 songs at the lowest price possible, plus you get a pandora, with the ability to actually choose what you want to hear. If you are going to buy 5 songs a month anyways, there is no downside to this offer. How this is "douchy", as some have claimed, I do not understand

    I don't get it - there's already tons and tons of free radio - lala, pandora, last.fm... Why is this one worth paying for?

    @cbandes: Well, the 5 "free" songs makes it a wash (and cheaper than iTunes), but hopefully unlike the free streaming services, maybe you can actually rewind, click next infinitely, and pick the songs you want to hear next?

    @triggerx: If you're paying a subscription price, it better allow you to rewind and fast forward at your leisure. If it doesn't, it's 100% worthless.

    somehow i think there is a 100 paged PDF somewhere with the unreadable fine print :?


    and what consequence will it have, for your songs, when this "cheap" service is gone in a year or two ?

    @xenoastro: Just strip the DRM off and you get way more than 5 songs a month....sweet! I recommend DRM converter for this.

    @kleptoman: Where can you buy "way more than 5 songs a month" for $5?


    I mean, sure, if you manage to find some of iTunes' mythical $.69 tracks you could get... ya know... 6 songs instead of 5.


    A buck a song is the industry standard, and these songs are DRM free.

    @dsh: Please to be reading the first part of the sentence: "strip off the DRM". Napster has unlimited downloads but they are DRMed .wma files....Strip that off and you get way more than 5 songs for $5

    @kleptoman: I'm sure he meant a legitimate alternative. Finding (and most likely purchasing) DRM-stripping software is not quite the same.
