Was wondering if we have any Napster subscribers on TD....

I love Napster and have been subscribed for a very long time now. It keeps me up to date with all the new music every week and lets me select whatever music I want to listen to at any time.

This could be a thread for users to discuss the music that they listen to with the feature that collects what songs you listen to most to build their top weekly, monthly, yearly or even lifetime top songs.

No shame in music choices here, it’s all subjective so...

Top 5 Weekly:

5. Cash Cash - Mean It
4. Adelitas Way - Lets Just Drive
3. La Roux feat. Kanye West - In For The Kill remix
2. James Blunt - The Truth
1. Kesha - BFF

I subscribe to it. I have it because my wife and I can share the same account and play on multiple devices with one subscription. Spotify has the best sound quality but makes you purchase a family plan that’s twice the price. Napster pretty much is like all of the services otherwise and has any artist with music on the other platforms.

I had no idea that was still around. I did Napster back in the black market days. I had an account and in about a year, I downloaded over 15,000 songs.


I would have my downloads all que'd up and have them run all night. That was the first in file sharing/Stealing. Man that was fun waking up the next morning and seeing what all made it through and what didnt. And of course, at what quality.

It’s not the same thing. Napster (basically the name) bought out Rhapsody and changed it’s name to Napster. It’s similar to Spotify and other apps.

I don’t use other streaming apps for music.

Does any make a list of your top charts individually for weekly, monthly, yearly and lifetime songs listened to?

Each song took 15 minutes or more to download on my dial-up. A guy at work hooked up Napster on the office broadband connection. My eyes bugged out when I saw him download a song in just a few seconds.

Ok, feel free to post your Top 5 Weekly from Spotify on here too.

Funny to see so many people with their experiences with a company 20 years ago, and to think that rebranded company is still the illegal downloading website on your dial-up connection.....

You guys have updated and upgraded since dial-up connections right?

So did Napster, check it out before bashing it.

I switched about 2 years ago. I loved Rhapsody and agree about the design, but I started to notice during deep dives some artists would be missing songs/albums for whatever reason and Spotify would still have it. Plus its a hell of alot easier to share a song with someone when 99% of the population has Spotify now.
