pretty much, yeah, and there's a bw story in this weeks wir that echoes your observation.

In all, [CEO] Gorog's latest announcements probably don't presage a coming of age for Napster, but the start of just another scary chapter as the company fights for survival.

in the meantime, they're giving it all away and hoping to make it up on the volume.

but you know...no special player, no infectious spyware, no personally invasive sign-up requirements. just a made up a nic and web email, and any old browser, and you've got a million tunes to click. what's not to like? this is truly a first. nobody else is offering this now, and no one ever did before.
