Google, Napster consider music alliance
The New York Post is quoting unnamed sources this morning as saying that Google may be considering an alliance with Napster, rather than building a music service of its own. The report apparently gives greater weight to an alliance - which is Google’s usual preference - than a buyout, saying the plan could "include an acquisition." However, financial analysts who viewed the report pointed out to CNNMoney.com that, with $7.6 billion in cash on hand, Google could conceivably pull off a buyout without much sweat.
