NEW YORK (Reuters) - Retail chain Circuit City and Web
music service Napster said on Friday they would jointly offer a
subscription service with access to millions of songs, the
latest effort to compete with Apple Inc.'s popular iTunes music
store.
The Circuit City + Napster service will begin on April 29
with a subscription cost of $14.95 per month.
U.S. electronics chains and Web music services have sought
new ways to team up and compete with iTunes. In October, Best
Buy Co. introduced a music player and subscription service with
partners SanDisk Corp. and RealNetworks Inc..
