摘要

With its prospects in the courtroom looking bleak, Napster is taking its case to the court of public opinion. On February 20th the troubled company, whose software allows users to swap free music files online, revealed the details of the offer it has been making to the record industry, which wants to shut it down. Napster proposes a new, subscription-based version of its service, capable of tracking who is downloading what, so that royalties can be paid. This plan was cooked up in conj unction with Bertelsmann, the media group that owns bmg Entertainment, one of the Big Five record companies suing Napster. But despite months of talks, none of the other four has signed up to the new plan. By making it public, and adding a new twist, Napster hopes to force their hand.
