XM + Napster

The once notorious file sharing company and satellite giant, XM, are teaming up. It seems like a great idea and all, but who wants to pay two monthly subscriptions for music, just to have a fancy mp3 player? You got me.

"The XM/MP3 player will give the user the ability to mark the songs they like while listening to XM for future reference or online purchase. When the unit is connected to a PC, the XM + Napster service will match the marked XM song titles with Napster's music catalog, allowing users to easily make their purchases."

I will most likely not pick another mp3 player until regular FM tuner and video capabilities are seemlessly incorporated into the design. Guess I'll need to wait a few years on that one.
