Napster Lowers Prices

Online music service, Napster, is set to drop the price of its least-expensive subscription music plan from $12.95 down to $5.

This low-cost subscription plan will allow users access to unrestricted streaming of its 7 million-song catalog and a new offering of five DRM-free downloads per month.



This plan is currently restricted to U.S. subscribers at this time.



The premium subscription will still cost $14.95 for users who would like to take content with them on portable devices (The i-pod is still not included).



At this time it is unclear if those subscribers will have the same access to the low-cost subscribers with the five free downloads.
