Napster Free Flash PlayerI know we all miss the days when Napster was a free music service that raised the ire of many an artist, but thrilled fans with the multitudes of music suddenly at their fingertips. Now that Napster is legal, they're trying to win back those fans with a free 512MB flash player. All you have to do is sign up for Napster To Go for 3 months. ($14.95/month)

That $14.95 will get you access to all the music you can handle, rather than charging you per track; of course, if you cancel your subscription, you lose it all. But that's another matter.

If you were thinking about trying a subscription service, now's a good time as any. If you drop $50, in addition to the subscription fee, you'll get a 1GB flash player with a color LCD screen, FM tuner, and support for WMA and MP3 music files.

Both players are Napster-branded. We haven't reviewed these models, but our audio expert has checked out a lot of other flash players.

Still on the fence about subscription services versus pay-per-track stores? Take a listen to Gearlog Radio as our panelists discuss whether to buy, rent or steal their music.

But I'm still skeptical about subscription music services...

Free is good, but not one option for me since my cellphone plays MP3. So this offer does not bring me back - and yes; It was a true golden age, sad it ended. So I am indeed one of the old 'fans' of Napster. Thyey need to come up with something better.
