Napster vs The Record Labels - Fight to the Death | 6

And the other music bosses are still livid that Bertelsmann went behind their backs to partner with Napster. They won’t be stepping up to help either company.


Napster is running out of options. There’s only one thing that might still work: it’s got to go legitimate.
