RealNetworks has submitted its Rhapsody app for the iPhone and iPod touch to Apple for review. If approved, this app will give you access to all of Rhapsody’s 8-million tracks and all of its radio stations. You will also be able to create playlists on the fly, or if you already have an existing Rhapsody account, you can sync the app with it and listen to playlists you have already created or browse music you have saved. The one large downside is that the app isn’t able to store songs for offline playback, which means if you don’t have a connection via Wi-Fi, Edge, or 3G, you won’t be able to use the app. The Rhapsody for iPhone will be available for free, but it will require a $15 per month Rhapsody To Go subscription to use.
