Best Buy, Napster, and Rhapsody

Best Buy and Rhapsody have announced they intend to combine the subscriber bases of Napster and Rhapsody to create the largest on-demand digital music service in the US.

This decision supports Best Buy's digital entertainment strategy and the Enterprise Connected World strategy. Best Buy continues to be invested in digital music, video, and gaming, and we will continue to offer a wide assortment of digital content options. Selling connected devices and helping customers connect to the content they love is where we'll continue to focus.

For Current Subscribers:

Rhapsody and Napster will continue to operate and serve customers independently of each other through a transition period. During this period, Napster will communicate with customers and alert them to the transition to the Rhapsody service.

Customers can continue to enjoy their Napster (http://www.napster.com) and Rhapsody (http://www.rhapsody.com) music experience throughout the transition.
