Napster + 02 = possible.

O2 have teamed up with Napster and will soon be allowing you to access a new download service which enables users to download their favorite songs directly onto their hand set. The service, which is launched this weekend, will give users access to over 5 million tracks from all the major record labels as well as many independent artists. The data downloaded will be encrypted to ensure that it cannot be illegally passed, shared or copied. Each track will cost 99p for the first 3 months, with the cost per track after the trail period still under discussion. Unlike other companies you still keep all downloaded songs on your handset even if you decide to swap services, which is always a good thing if you like to shop around for good deals.
