PayPal is the one of the Net's largest payment handling companies, owned nowadays by eBay. Its popularity was partly sparked by the fact that direct account-to-account bank transactions weren't commonplace or free in United States when the dotcom boom started back in late 1990s and PayPal tapped to that need.
Napster will continue to support its other payment methods as well, which include credit and debit cards and pre-paid payment cards.
