Holy hell, Napster is a (legal) subscription music streaming service! Crazy times we live in.

Mm. Nah. I’m just confused who this is supposed to be for: people who used Napster for free music or people who say “what’s a Napster?”

TIL Napster still exist. I thought it got shut down in the early 2000’s?

It did, but the branding got sold a few times and is now in the hands of some crypto company.

Only for the Metaverse? Ha! Guess I won’t be using Napster.

Yeah, next year they’ll go after NFTs then a year after that they’ll all in for AI.

I doubt anyone will use this except for crypto bagholders who have no interest in music (or anything really) and are just looking to dumb their bags the next mark.

FFS, stop trying to make the Metaverse happen. Nobody wants it.
taladar@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
Those who want it have been using it for 20 years already with Second Life. Oddly enough, none of these new metaverse makers take any lessons learned from that but I guess then they would have to admit that VR is crap that nobody needs for immersion.

No shame in liking what you like. Roblox is a metaverse and lots of people play on that.

Just a heads up: internet points don’t matter at all. They have no bearing on real actual life. You can relax.
