Nando Times says that Napster, the controversial but popular music file-sharing Web site, will start
charging users a membership fee later this year, the head of Bertelsmann, Napster’s parent company, said Monday.
“We have an idea of the price range but it is too early to publicize it,” Bertelsmann chief executive Thomas Middelhoff told journalists on
the fringes of the World Economic Forum held in this Swiss resort town.
