I think a better way of "doing the math" is trying to find out how much money you need to put in a savings account to be able to withdraw 15 a month from just interest.
Asuming an interest rate of 1% APY, you need to deposit 18.000 to receive a perpetuity of 15 USD a month. (18.000 x.01 / 12 = 15)
So Napster is equivalent to purchase 18.000 songs from iTunes.
Observation: if you can get a better interest rate is better for the Napster option, for example a 2% gives you only 9.000 songs in iTunes.
If you believe you are going to purchase more than 18.000 songs from iTunes in your lifetime, go Napser, otherwise iTunes is better.
I am starting to have a bad feeling about networks threatening to cancel shows that have hardcore/passionate fans. I think there is a big chance that the network is just canceling the show to get the fans moving and get a lot of publicity and more viewer ship.
The fact that they announce the cancellation of the show when they still have episodes to air is also very suspicious...
