iTunes vs Rhapsody

[pugsly07]

:eek: I think Rhapsody is better then iTunes. I would like to know if others have a different view on this. What do you use and why? :D

[comhcinc]

I think Rhapsody is one of the better of the two.

i will get back to you as soon as i figure out what that means...........

And a generic post:

iTunes FTW!

iTunes. I'm too lazy to use anything else.

[pugsly07]

I have been using both of these media centers. Why I like Rhap, only for the To Go feature it allows the user not have to pay for the song but download the whole song w/o advertisements. It gives me the option to pay for it if I like later. With most music that's out now a days I need time for it to grow on me.
I understand this is a gen. post just wanted to test and see if people will post there thoughts on this.

I concur.

Mostly, I use WMP for any music or video playing. Unless it's a quicktime or other strange format (ogm, mkv, etc.) in which case I use VLC. Even the video playing has gone down with the new PS3 firmware update I've been watching most of my videos on a 42 LCD HDTV.

Generally stick with iTunes . . . it simply just works. I know exactly where all my music is, it displays my music great (with minor manual tweaks with genres and such.) It has the best integration of store, media player device, etc... I'll always use iPod so I'm not too worried about getting another MP3 player to function with it. It's just a nice package.

Plus I will never rent music, like the subscription service Rhapsody offers.

I use the new Zune software very little. I like the design of the Zune software, but it's horribly flawed with missing features. Please tell me why the Zune media player doesn't have equalization?

Yor right I had bought the Zune nice interface but was lacking in what I believe to be standard features. I can do w/o a radio, also you can only really use Zune store for music since everything I own is not formatted to sercure media. I returned that ended up with 2 80 gig iPods loaded with all my music and some of my movies. One for myself and the other in my wife's car.

[pugsly07]

I havn't looked at Rhapsody as a rental service but now that you say that it's TRUE. I pay a monthly sub to use those songs w/o owning it.

[pugsly07]

I had went to my local Apple store today and signed up to a class on iTunes for next month. It's a four hour class, I think the reason I like Rhapsody is the interface simple for me to rap my mind on.

really happy with itunes, also like amazon's service because of the no-drm.

Rhapsody is kinda good to listen to full albums before ya buy them but my rhapsody kinda skips like a record or a cd.
