Napster Signs Up U.S. Colleges

Newsfactor: "Six U.S. universities have signed up to offer Napster's legal digital music downloading services to their students. The Los Angeles, California-based company has a strategy of contacting university administrators to offer low-priced subscriptions in a bid to lure students away from illegal peer-to-peer file-sharing networks such as Kazaa. Napster is a subsidiary of digital media firm Roxio. Cornell University, George Washington University, Middlebury College, University of Miami, University of Southern California and Wright State University all plan to create their own on-campus version of the Napster service. Pennsylvania State University and the University of Rochester have already started offering the service to their students. The new services are expected to debut this fall."
