The Company

Snapster, Inc. was founded in the spring of 1999 in a dorm room, by a college freshman who was tired of driving to the mall to buy one song and getting eleven others. His pet snapping turtle, Snappy, watched the whole thing from a 10-gallon tank and became our mascot, our logo, and our morale officer.

Today Snapster has 31 employees, 2 interns, 1 lawyer, 0 profits and a very sophisticated office in Redwood Shoal, California, with a foosball table, a hammock, and a refrigerator stocked with warm soda.
