Napster Mobile has launched on O2, the UK's second largest mobile operator with over 18m subscribers. Napster Mobile offers full tracks from a catalogue of over 5 million songs as over-the-air downloads to a mobile device. It is a dual download service; a copy of the track downloaded to mobile is available for download on the user's PC. O2 is part of Spain's Teléfonica group.
Our take... Napster is steadily expanding its European services following the launch of Napster Mobile in Europe with Telecom Italia Mobile, Swisscom, O2 Ireland and TMN Portugal in the second half of 2007. O2 Germany offers Napster to Go subscriptions for free with any consumer starting a DSL subscription between January 16 and March 31.
