Napster snapped up by... Best Buy?!



Napster, despite being a now paid download service, still holds a place dear in a lot of our hearts; it was the one that really made p2p big, and it has been a shame in past months to see it desperately searching for a buyer. Thankfully, it's found someone...although probably not the someone you would expect. A certain retail chain Best Buy proposed a takeover offer worth upwards of 120million USD, and it's been completely approved.

It's an odd company to do it, but if Napster lives on, I'm certainly happy
