" Napster, the digital song store and subscription service launched by Roxio in late October, said Monday that it passed the 5 million mark in online song sales. Although that keeps it ahead of other only-on-PC services' announced sales figures, it remains far behind Apple Computer's iTunes, which serves both PCs and Macintosh computers.
Napster has experienced some rough waters in recent weeks with company head Mike Bebel leaving last month."
While iTunes presently sells about a million songs a *week* and has over 50% of the legal download market. Napster is number two at around 15% ...
Which also means that around 25% of all legal downloading is done by Mac users (since about half the iTunes store sales are to Mac users).
