About Napster:
Napster was the original music industry disruptor of the Web1 era. A name steeped in innovation, we are proudly synonymous with music. We started a revolution as the very first platform to imagine how we would all enjoy entertainment in the future.
Utilizing peer-to-peer technology, the original Napster put fans front and center by creating a new means of music distribution. In subsequent years, it evolved into a fully licensed subscription-based music streaming service.
The recently refreshed Napster is currently available in 33 countries across a wide range of connected devices.
