Rhapsody has announced they’re bringing their music streaming app to Android. Similar to other music subscription services like Mog or Spotify, Rhapsody offers a catalog of 9 million songs, with the typical features of playlists, multi-tasking, and download capabilities for offline play. From the press release:
Now, people with Android-powered handsets like the Motorola Droid or Google’s Nexus One can explore and stream Rhapsody’s entire catalog of over 9.5 million songs from pretty much anywhere. Using the app requires a Rhapsody subscription, but anyone can try it free for seven days.
We’ve been beta-testing our Android app since January; thank you to the hundreds of people who have tried it and given us your feedback.
PC Magazine recently honored the app’s beta version with their Editor’s Choice award, saying “Rhapsody is the best streaming music service for Android.”
Still in beta, Rhapsody music app is free to download from Android Market, and comes with a 7-day trial. After that, it’s $10 a month. You can see Rhapsody in action below or scan the QR code and try it yourself.

I was one of the pre market release beta testers and the app is great. But now you can only stream music to one device (mobile, computer, etc) at a time. Wasn’t that way during premarket beta. Awesome app/service for $10 if you only have one phone you want to stream on, otherwise it sucks for multiple (I.e. you and your wife) people. I’m not paying for two subscriptions. The $15 plan is useless.
