Tippr offering 6-month Rhapsody membership for $39
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Hot Deals, Music,
Daily deal site Tippr has got a deal today that should have music lovers taking notice. They’re offering six months of Rhapsody Premiere for $39, which is a 35% discount. Rhapsody normally costs $10 per month, so this is a nice deal. The subscription allows you access to over 10 million songs that you can listen to whenever you’d like using the Rhapsody website, client, and apps for the iPhone, iPod touch, and Android. It’s pretty much the ability to listen to any song at any time, regardless of where you are. Not bad.

RealNetworks spinning Rhapsody off into separate company
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Corporate News, Internet, Music,
RealNetworks has just announced that it will be spinning off its Rhapsody music service into a separate, independently-operated company that will be based in downtown Seattle. This move follows the departure of founder Rob Glaser as CEO of the company, and about 150 RealNetworks employees will make the transition over to the new Rhapsody. Rhapsody, a joint venture between RealNetworks and Viacom MTV Networks, will no longer see it’s majority stake held by Real, which currently has a 51 percent share. RealNetworks says this is a move that is focused on streamlining company operations. Interesting, to say the least, since as far as we’re concerned, Rhapsody is the most interesting and mainstream product that RealNetworks has to offer.

iriver and Real Reveal clix Rhapsody
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Portable Audio / Video, Software,
Earlier today, iriver and Real unveiled their new partnership strategy, focused on the new iriver clix Rhapsody digital media player. In reality, the clix Rhapsody is just a clix2 that inetgrates seamlessly with Real’s Rhapsody music service. The end result is something that is akin to the iPod + iTunes integration that many enjoy from the Apple side of things. The player will sync up with your Rhapsody library, and will also download personalized Rhapsody Channels which, in theory, should be chock full of tracks you will enjoy. If this sounds familiar, it’s because SanDisk has done something similar with their Sansa player. All in all, the iriver clix Rhapsody runs for $189.99 USD (watch out for the $12.99 monthly all-you-can-eat Rhapsody fee), which includes 4GB of storage, and is available now. Even better still, anyone who has previously purchased a clix2 can just upgrade the firmware on their device, which pretty much turns it into a clix Rhapsody as well.
