Napster released a feature to allow the spread of tunes and (hopefully) the acquisition of subscribers. Here it is in the Plain-Old-HTML version. Also comes in IM/Email and Mini-Player flavors.
Wolvesville - Manuel Barrueco (with Steve Morse). An Improvisation On Etude No.1 by Villa-Lobos
(And, btw, that's one of the worlds sweetest/toughest classical guitarists in an improvised duet with the former lead guitarist of The Dixie Dregs)
Unfortunately, as a viral-driven acquisition tactic, it's so heavily laden with Napster Free Trial up-sell, that much of the fun, let alone the utility, of sharing media has been sucked out. Whether the goal was to leverage viral effects to boost subscriber acquisition, or generate lots of in-bound links, it won't make a dent.
One more thing, depending on your browser settings, you may have to "allow pop-ups from Napster.com" in order to hear the track I've linked to above. I could have posted the Mini-Player right in this blog post, but Blogger doesn't allow javascript functions to run in this, or any, blog.
