Microsoft 'quietly shifting some of its marketing muscle' to Roxio's Napster digital music service

CBS Marketwatch: "Roxio shares gained nearly 9 percent Wednesday after a story in the New York Post's online edition said Microsoft has been "quietly shifting some of its marketing muscle" to Roxio's Napster digital music service. Microsoft has remained neutral, supporting many digital music players and online music stores. But the continued success of iTunes 'may prompt Microsoft to abandon its practiced neutrality,' the Post said, noting that Microsoft has given prominent placement to Napster on its Media Center personal computers ... B. Riley & Co. analysts upgraded Roxio's stock earlier this week to 'neutral' from 'sell,' based on its stock price."
