Napster has agreed to continue discounted rates for current faculty and staff subscribers. Napster will no longer offer single-use student promotion codes or new faculty discount codes. All Vanderbilt students and unsubscribed faculty and staff can receive a three-month, 33 percent discount on a Napster to Go subscription by following the instructions below. The discounted rate is $30 for a three-month term. When the term is up, unless cancelled beforehand, the price increases to $14.95 per month. This offer expires Dec. 31, 2008. Students, faculty and staff with inactive Napster accounts will remain in “Napster Light” status. This gives them access to their music libraries, allows them to play 30-second clips, and to purchase songs and albums from the Napster store. They can upgrade to a full-service subscription. Vanderbilt’s partnership with Napster began in August 2004. It exemplified Vanderbilt’s support for the Campus Action Network, an initiative dedicated to facilitating safe, legitimate digital music services to campuses. CAN was initiated by Sony BMG Music Entertainment and other record companies. Vanderbilt retains partnerships with music download vendors Apple iTunes, MyTracks, and Ruckus, as well as Joost.
