Today, Motorola announced that they would be replacing Apple with Napster as the source of their subscription music service for their ROKR phone line.
The new partnership would be for the US, UK, and German markets.
Initially, the companies will place "Napster To Go" on the ROKR Z6 and then see the results.
Customers would be eligible for a free month of Napster To Go and European customers will also receive five free permanent downloads.
The Z6 with Napster will be launched in a few months and the service will use Windows Media DRM.
"We are very pleased to announce this new global relationship which supports our focus on driving adoption of our subscription model by attaching to music enabled cell phones which are expected to become the dominant device for portable music over the next few years," Napster CEO Chris Gorog said.
