Apple is in talks to buy Napster, Mac rumours site LoopRumors has claimed, citing "reliable sources".

Well, not Napster per se but Roxio, the CD burning software specialist, which itself acquired Napster's assets for $5 million after the peer-to-peer pioneer declared itself bankrupt last summer.

Roxio also owns PressPlay, the online music service launched by major music labels Sony and Universal in 2001.
