It is better than I thought, but it still needs improvement. The streaming is kind of slow. The application freezes from time to time. And the most ridiculous thing is that it displays the info for another song from time to time. Peter the portable gps systems and gps accessories specialist.

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 have the Rhapsody Unlimited so you could imagine my surprise when I found out this account was decidedly “limited” when it came to Rhapsody on the iPhone. Oh, that requires, “To-Go”. You’d think for $100+ a year “Unlimited” would be just that…. Ugh! It’s great on my Sonos, but I never even bothered to enable the test on the iPhone.

It is better than I expected, but it needs a lot of work. The streaming is pretty hit and miss, despite having full bars and 3G. The program freezes occasionally too, or plays a song but displays the info for another. And the price point is not in-line with it’s competition, so a lot of people don’t see the value. I love it, but I also was a fan of rhapsody before the iphone app, so I am willing to live with the hiccups and hope 2.0 solves a lot of the bugginess. I wish it would add the ability to search playlists as well.

Rhapsody 1.0 for iPhone is horrible. They need to be able to store downloads locally for those with a Rhapsody to Go account and then things will pick up. I use it at home with a Sonos system and it’s amazing.

The app and service are great, but the pricing is 2002. Premium Pandora and Slacker accounts are only a few bucks a month, as is the Rhapsody-similar Napster.
