Edel, Napster join forces
updated 05:02 pm EST, Tue January 2, 2001
edel Music AG, the world's second largest independent music label, has agreed to cooperate with Napster around Napster's new membership-based business model. Edel will allow the master recordings and musical compositions it owns or controls to be used for file-sharing under the new service Napster is evolving. [site not updated]

uhhh
is anyone else getting kinda scared that Napster is selling out? i know it is old news that Napster is turning into this membership thing, but they say on their page that "they aren't gonna do anything without input from us." we all know that no one is really going to say "Please charge me to use this service that used to be free!" Everyone knows that Napster essentially cannot be shutdown since the internet is a global thing. If they were smart, they would put a small one room office in Sweden and call it Napster HQ just to get the US gov't off their back.
