Sorry Russell but I don't buy it:
This just opened the crack just a little more to the apocolypse I was predicting for the other standards in the mobile media space. I'm not going to claim that Napster's service is going to take down Apple's iTunes for example, I'm just going to say that it's one step towards that.
The point is, nobody would ever pay $10,000 to fill their iPod with 10,000 new songs. They probably have their iPods already filled to the brim with music they already own, legally or not. Personally, I have about 1700 songs in my iTunes library and could have more if I started ripping all my CDs. Should I feel the urge to buy a new tune, I would rather pay the occasional 0.99$ (or Euros) to get it from iTMS, then pay $18 per month to rent it.
