Google + Napster?

I feel compelled to squash another rumor...this time, related to Google's supposed interest in acquiring Napster. Here's our public comment...

"We have no plans to acquire Napster, nor do we have plans to develop a music store at this time. Google recently introduced a music search feature that offers users faster access to music-related information they are searching for. For certain music-related queries, we display links to 3rd party sites where interested users can purchase music directly."
