Say Wha? Napster Up for Auction

Asking price 25M$, deadline in eight business days. Former liabilities wiped out due to the bankruptcy proceedings.

Reprinted LA Times story available at Slyck.

Someone will snatch it up. Just a matter of time. Like said by Jack, the name alone could be worth that much.

Wink

According to Zeropaid (citing LA Times) no bids were made in given time. This means that on August 29 Napster - freed from legal worries - should drop into hands of Bertelsmann.

will they try and commercially exploit a new "napster" standard, in the fashion of quicktime or realplayer?
