Question

Can we integrate napster in a .net website? If so please suggest any documentation to refer to. Thanks.

Answer 1

Napster doesn't have a public API, so there is no legitimate, supported method for accessing it from other services. However, the search protocol is simple and has been documented to a limited extent here.

Obviously there is no guarantee that this will still work a day, week, month or year from now, and you'll need to write your own .NET wrapper code. But it is at least somewhat possible.

Answer 2

Napster released an API shortly after this question was asked, if it still applies.
