The Rhapsody app for the iPhone is HORRIBLE. They suckered me in with it. I’ve been using Rhapsody for about a month and I love it at home. But the app is the worst app I’ve ever used. Constantly crashing! They’ve promised an update but it’s taking forever!!! They should refund me the To-Go charges until they get the app fixed.

I’m on day 4 of the 7-day trial, and, until this afternoon, I was very happy with Rhapsody on the iPhone. Suddenly, this afternoon, the app became very uncooperative–freezing, not accessing my playlists, and randomly shutting down (after a morning of pleasant listening). I had almost decided to go ahead and become a paying customer since having access to so much music is very compelling, now I’m not so sure.

I have pocket tunes working fine this afternoon, so I’m not sure why Rhapsody wouldn’t also be working.

Apple users are excited with the new iTunes 9.0. At this moment will Rhapsody catch fire? Maybe iTunes store’s revamp disappoints people, but it costs low compared to Rhapsody.

However, the features are good in Rhapsody and it is great that Rhapsody came out out of App Approval process in this peak time.

When I’ve plugged my iPhone into the dock (which was admittedly not made for an iPhone) it needs to shut off the phone/data in order to play without interference over the radio. I’m not sure if newer devices can get around that but that would be one barrier of entry to me.

Besides, paying $15 to stream only (or temporarily fill with nothing once my contract end) is very 2003. Napster’s model of unlimited stream+5 downloads/mo for $5/mo makes much more sense and will be even better if they can ever get an iPhone app to make it stronger.
