Do Any of You Use Rhapsody Music Service?

I use Rhapsody. Generally I like it, and with the new app they have for the Iphone it's become much more useful.

The problem isn't with Rhapsody, it's with the record companies and license holders. Rhapsody can only offer what they can get licenses to.

The whole music model is changing, and some music companies and artists are holding onto the old model tooth and nail, refusing to give licenses to services like Rhapsody. Its going to bite them in the ass in the long run, because physical media is a dying breed.

I wondered about that. So do all of the companies like Rhapsody and I-Tunes basically all have the same music?
