RealNetworks in a Venture With Comcast
by Jeremy at 1:56 am EST, Nov 11, 2003

The relationship between online music and high-speed Internet access just got a little closer.

Comcast is set to announce today that it will offer the Rhapsody online music service from RealNetworks to its nearly 5 million subscribers.

Songs come from a digital library of 30,000 albums of music provided by all five major music companies and more than 200 other labels.

After reading this article, I decided to check out the free trial of Rhapsody. For $10 a month, it is a pretty sweet offering. It doesn't have everything, but it has plenty to keep you streaming good music 24/7/365 without repeating for a long time.

Apparently, the only thing that this "deal" represents, aside from press coverage, is that eventually you will be able to have the $10 added to your Comcast bill, instead of having a separate line item on your credit card. Is that really noteworthy?
