BestBuy Purchased Napster
GeekSquad | 11:46 PM on 09.19.2008 18 comments


Hello and thank you for letting me sign up and blog on a awesome site. For my first blog I wanted remember the 1999. Napster is born and the RIAA killed it. With the new purchase of Napster from BestBuy will it make a come back or die off once again. Not sure what BB will be doing with Napster as they also promote Itunes in the store and on the site.

In game related news Google owning Valve good idea. Not sure what the rest of you amazing people think...

An ex of mine works at Best Buy. She's sort of my stalker right now, so it's awesome when I want games and she gets them discounted.

Welcome to Destructoid, I love you.

Couldn't think of a cool name to register with so I used my job title. Not sure if a blog of th amazing dip shits we get during the day will be worth a blog but if they are amazing I might just do it. Thanks for the kind words any rules I should follow when blogging on this site?

Napsters already back and legit.

It buys licenses and you pay to have access to the entire catalog so long as you're subscribed.

I wouldn't be surprised if Napster just gets swallowed up, merged with Best Buy Digital Music Store.

Former Squad employee here. Welcome. I agree with thedude300, I'll bet it'll get merged with the Best Buy music store eventually.

Good story...Had a customer come in, he and his PC smelled like crap, literally. They both smelled like they have been sleeping in a barn for a month. He had some lame ass story about how it was stolen and sat in a police station for months. On the inside I was like "Oh really?" He wanted help, simple diagnostic, I was closest to the window that day so I initially helped him. Now there is a rule where if a PC comes in that could be considered a hazard, like this one, we can refuse to take it. I didn't want anything to do with it, I asked my supervisor, he took it in but the rest of us swore it off, it was his problem now. He put it in a garbadge bag with 2 glade air freshners for like a week. Took it out, still smelled like shit, did the diagnostic, no OS, just a simple restore, everything else was ok. Dude came back to pick it up and you guessed it he still smelled like shit.

Now I have no problem with farmers and people who have dirty jobs where they go home smelling like crap, but don't feckin lie to me about what you do. Or even better, when you go out in public don't smell like you just crawled out of the toliet.
