Napster Reports Smaller Q2 Loss

Wednesday November 7, 2007

The digital music service, Napster, has reported its Q2 figures which show a narrowing deficit compared with the same quarter from last year. Although Napster has seen a drop in its subscribers, its revenue is actually up 24% to $31.6m USD. Its net loss, quarter ending Sept 30, is $5.1m USD compared with $9m USD the previous year.

Napster is currently seeing an upturn in its sales of mobile music, and anticipates Q3 revenues to be about $33m USD. Napster’s management also predicts a positive cash flow in the current fiscal year.

Napster recently opened up its digital music service to non-pc users for the very first time by releasing a browser-based client. Subscribers can now navigate the service and listen to streaming audio in addition to downloading music files. For more information, read the full review of the Napster digital music service.
