UK Napster To Go Compatible MP3 Players

by Jack 1/17/2008 4:23:47 PM

Napster To Go is a great idea - you pay your money each month and you can download and transfer to your MP3 player as many tracks as you want. Online music subscription services are the way to go I think. It's a great way to find new music. The problem with the online music business at the moment is the compatibility issue. How many iPods have been sold and then returned or sit collecting dust because they don't work with Napster / Tesco / etc... and how many £30 MP3 players have been sold to people who only face disappointment when they get home and try to get it to talk to iTunes? It's VHS vs Betamax all over again. I know techie people who are online all the time (the kind of people who would read a blog!) will think that it's obvious and if you get the wrong player it's because you don't know what you're doing. Just imagine if it was the same for every electrical device you bought though - "Hmm.. shall I buy a Dyson vacuum cleaner, is it compatible with my electricity supplier, do I need a firmware upgrade..?!" People just want to walk into a shop and buy an MP3 player and know that it will just work.
