Porn Company Wants Napster Assets

from the a-fitting-end dept

A Spanish company specializing in online pornography has made an offer to buy Napster’s assets, saying they want to create a “legal” peer-to-peer platform for people to trade adult material. What they really want, of course, is the immediate brand recognition that Napster would give them. So, it’s true, not only did porn push all of the technology forward, in the end, they’re going to end up owning it all anyway. In the meantime, though, Napster is apparently still running a small business… selling t-shirts.
