Rhapsody Launches iPhone App with Offline Listening, But Still Behind Spotify

Rhapsody has finally launched offline listening for their iPhone application. Users will now be able to download their Rhapsody playlists to their phones; by June, Rhapsody says it will add functionality so users can download individual songs and albums as well.

Rhapsody says the update makes it the “first music service to let people enjoy subscription downloads on their iPhone, iPod or iPad.” I’m not exactly too sure if this is correct, because Spotify have had an offline listening option in their iPhone app since it launched, plus MOG will soon be releasing their iPhone app with the same capabilities.

Rhapsody seems to be losing ground on Spotify, and once Spotify launch in the USA I can see Rhapsody in a little trouble!

Here’s a demo of the update:
