>>Napster charges now to rent per month($10)<< Actually, it's $14.95 per month.

For only $14.95 a month, you can fill and refill your compatible MP3 player with
your favorite music, artists you've just discovered and the latest releases without
paying 99¢ per track. Get everything Napster has to offer PLUS unlimited music for
your Napster To Go-compatible MP3 player.

napster.com

In the new Napster service, subscribers will be able to download music onto their PCs, then transfer it to their portable music devices, as they do with iTunes. Users will be able to fill their music players up with as many songs as the players will hold -- but it is necessary to plug the devices into their PCs at least once every 30 days, so Napster can verify over the Internet that users are still paid-up members. Stop paying the monthly fee, and the songs become unplayable.

I think that the "ownership society" concept appeals more to my way of thinking. (Apologies to President Bush). :)
