Napster and Ericsson to partner on cellphone music service

1128248602535569.JPG Ericsson is expected to announce a new partnership with Napster to offer a version of Napster's subscription-based service to cellphone carriers worldwide, according to Engadget.com.

"Lots of details apparently still need to be clarified, including whether the service will be based on Napster To Go or a new platform, but buy-in from service providers could give the partnership a jump on Apple and Motorola's long-delayed iTunes phone, which reportedly (though denied by Moto) has carriers in a snit over being cut out of the revenue loop."
