Napster Returns as an AI Companion for Your MacBook – Seriously
Napster has relaunched as a hardware and software AI company with Napster View, a $99 holographic screen that mounts to MacBooks (M1+) and surfaces a library of some 15,000 agentic AIs for tasks from design and wellbeing to business planning. The agents draw on models from partners including Microsoft, OpenAI and Google’s Gemini, can access your screen and camera with permission, and support features like digital twins and cross‑user interaction; access will carry additional service fees. The move recasts the old music brand as an AI gadget player with potential enterprise and prosumer use cases, but raises privacy and user‑comfort questions that could limit adoption.
