Where did you pick up that the £5 package won't stream to Squeezeboxes?
I know the e-mail implies it (by listing it as an feature of the £10
package), but this image on the 'Features page'
(http://www.napster.co.uk/more_about_napster.html), suggests the £5
package can.

I got the answer from Napster customer support:
Thanks for contacting Napster Customer Support.
Once the transition to Rhapsody occurs, the Napster Unlimited Plus
Mobile plan for £10 per month would be required in order to access your

Can't talk about terms for the UK but here in Germany the difference

Hi all,
As has been noted previously Napster UK is closing down. I have been a
happy customer of the £5 unlimited streaming and 5MP3 package for
several years, but this will be no more. I have checked with Napster
and the £5 per month Napster Unilimited package will not stream to
Squeezeboxes,
