Yes N_S and thanks for the suggestion I used the itunes store back in 2004 to download Inspiration Lady before Harmony was released. But I have to admit that in general I am sorry to say rather suspicious of most things associated with Apple (and real Networks come to that) because their software has a to me distressing tendancy to try to insinuate themselves onto your computer.For example using
my latest recommendation for the task of grabbing Youtube videos in flv flash video format:-
itube

the actual download of itube is from:-
http://www.benjaminstrahs.com/download/iTube_Setup.exe 2574KB
I was delighted to find that that nice little program, automatically after downloading converts the flv file to mp4 format but then not best pleased to find that the itunes player is unwantedly opened (I much prefer to standardise on playing video files with Windows Media Player thank you very much in fact itube seems to make a pathetically poor and essentially useless job of the conversion to mp4)
No what I thought was most noteworthy about Rhapsody was that one can actually listen to 25 songs per month for free, once you have installed the necessary player, and once you have sorted out how to record anything playing on your computer's sound system you could amass quite a collection of recordings for free
