Following its separation from RealNetworks, Rhapsody adopted its own identity on April 6, 2010. Rhapsody would merge with the Napster streaming service in 2011, keeping it as a subsidiary.
In June 2016, Rhapsody announced the consolidation of their services and imminent renaming to Napster, which would occur in July. The previous service had reintroduced this logo, originally from its launch in 2003, a year prior.
2022–2025[]
Napster unveiled a new logo on June 8, 2022, removing the mascot's face for the first time in the brand's history. Napster was sold to Infinite Reality in March 2025.

Due to a suit from Sony Music Entertainment citing unpaid licensing fees, Napster's streaming library would be removed, and the site would rebrand on October 24, 2025 as a hub for music produced with generative artificial intelligence.
