Yes. Here's how it works. You can search our catalog of 3 million songs and stream songs up to 3 times each for FREE.
After the 3rd free play of any single track,
you can either purchase the track or become a Napster subscriber. As a subscriber, you can
download an unlimited number of full-length songs to your PC. As a Napster To Go subscriber
you can transfer those tracks to your compatible portable player without paying per track.

If this is Free, Why Would I Subscribe to Napster?
As a registered member of Napster's free music service you can listen to all 3 million
songs in the Napster catalog up to 3 times each. After the 3rd free play, you must
purchase the track to listen to it again.

without having to worry about any limits. You can also download your favorite music
to your PC and listen to it when you are not connected to the internet.
If you subscribe to Napster To Go, you can transfer that music to any compatible portable
device and take your music with you. Either way, there are no limits on how often you
can listen to your favorite songs

Why is a Napster Subscription Better Than Only Buying Music From an a la carte Music Store?
A Napster subscription gives you unlimited access to 3 million songs on your PC. For only a
little bit more a month, a Napster To Go subscription allows you to transfer an unlimited
amount of music to your PC and compatible MP3 player.
Think of it like a going to buffet. With all-you-can-eat music, you can try everything
you want, whenever you want. One day you can take every album by Bob Dylan, Miles Davis,
Gwen Stefani or 50 Cent. The next day you can download a whole radio station or every
Reggae album you want. Your music doesn't have to be limited by your budget anymore.
With Napster, the whole world of music opens up to you for the price of one CD a month.
Of course, all Napster subscribers still have the option to purchase music to burn to
CD or just keep permanently in their digital music collection. Subscribers get up to a
20% discount when purchasing multiple songs with Napster Track Packs.
With a Napster subscription, you can try music before you buy it.

I am having trouble playing tracks on Napster's free service. What could be causing this?
It's important to understand that there may be many factors preventing you from playing Napster tracks when using your internet browser to stream music from the internet. The most common causes for playback problems are related to internet security software/hardware, anti-virus programs, browser settings and the quality of your internet connection.

You should also make sure that your browser security settings are set appropriately low enough. Please refer to your security software/hardware or anti-virus program manufacturer and the internet options section of your internet browser for more information and to check your settings.
