Since Rhapsody has spun off from RealNetworks and Viacom\/MTV<\/a>, the subscription music service has gone down in price from $14.99 to $9.99, and its first app for Android has been released.<\/p>\n

The service has thus far proven to be extremely popular on the iPhone\/iPod touch, and has been downloaded more than 1.5 million times since debuting just about eight months ago<\/a>. That application lets subscribers access Rhapsody’s 8 million song database for streaming over 3G or Wi-Fi connections, they can make their own playlists or listen to commercial-free Rhapsody Radio programming. <\/p>\n

The Rhapsody Android app is a welcome addition to the platform as there are still fewer music services for Android than there are for iPhone\/iPod.<\/p>\n
