In order to get your player, one must subscribe 1 year of Napster service. But there is also an option to invest $80 more and one will get a RIO Nitrus with mighty 1.5gB of storage for music.
A brave marketing move to gather more customers, or is Napster once again shaping the future business models? It has been suggested by several analysts that in the future we do not pay for the IT hardware, but the service subscription fees instead.
Check out Napster.com for more details, and the limited time RIO offer.
