Jason Howell: Napster被收购后将转型为元宇宙音乐平台，这是一个充满机遇和挑战的尝试。一方面，Napster作为曾经的音乐行业颠覆者，其品牌价值依然存在，这为其在元宇宙音乐平台的竞争中提供了优势。另一方面，元宇宙市场目前有限，Napster能否成功转型取决于其能否吸引足够的用户，而不仅仅依靠怀旧情绪。此外，Napster还需要克服技术挑战，例如确保其平台在不同设备上的稳定性和流畅性。 Jenn Cutter: 元宇宙概念虽然经历了起伏，但其潜力依然存在，未来可能实现其承诺。Napster进军元宇宙，也反映了音乐产业对新技术的探索和尝试。然而，元宇宙平台的成功需要强大的内容和用户体验，Napster需要在内容建设和用户互动方面投入更多精力，才能在竞争激烈的市场中脱颖而出。
