Real's New Rhapsody Adds File Sharing
Posted by Chris Gohlke in "CONTENT" @ 05:00 PM
"Nearly two weeks ago, RealNetworks promised to reveal a "groundbreaking initiative in digital music," and today, the company showed its hand. Real unveiled a new version of its Rhapsody digital music store that will provide users with free monthly sampling and permit them to share their music with others - legally."
Basically, you get to sample 25 tracks during the month and you can choose to share with your friends. By share they mean the friend must download the software and they can only stream a DRM'd track. Does not seem very appealing to me. :?
