Rhapsody Comes to Philips Audio Devices

by Terrence O'Brien on January 7, 2008 at 01:51 PM



Sure Rhapsody isn't iTunes, but the online music store/serviceis still a massively popular source for digital music, and it has a rather impressive catalog available to purchase or "rent" (via subscription). Yesterday, at CES, Matt Rowlen, Vice President of Real Networks, joined the head of the new Philips Consumer Lifestyle division, Andrea Ragnetti, on stage at a press conference to announce that Rhapsody downloads and steamed media would be made available on Phlips GoGear MP3 players and Streamium home audio devices (pictured above).

Users will be able to browse and download from the Rhapsody subscription based catalog via Wi-Fi. Take that Zune and iPod!
