Napster eyes up mobile phone market

UK general manager Lianne Sharman told TechDigest "that Napster is in talks with manufacturers and networks about offering Napster to go on mobile phones.

‘Sharman acknowledges though that the roll out of a service for mobile phones would depend on the manufacturers and operators. While there is a base of around 20 million digital music players, over 600 million mobile phones have been sold worldwide and many new handsets have the ability to play back music.

Apple is also sizing up the mobile phone market after agreeing with Motorola to develop a compatible with its iTunes music download service."
