Rhapsody Users Can Now Share Songs On Twitter

At South by Southwest Tuesday, Rhapsody announced that it's making their catalog of music available for sharing on Twitter.

With this launch, Rhapsody becomes the first streaming music service to offer licensed full-track playback to music fans on Twitter to ensure that artists, labels and publishers are paid for their work as songs are played.

Using Twitter’s audio card technology, every Rhapsody member can now easily share songs with their followers directly from the Rhapsody app.  While listening to music on Rhapsody, simply tap the Twitter icon, add comments and hashtags, and share the full-length song.  Friends and followers will see the Rhapsody audio card in their Twitter stream and can press the play button to hear the song that inspired the Tweet.

The launch of Rhapsody audio cards also makes it possible for any Twitter user to listen to entire songs without leaving the Twitter app. If they are hungry for more, Twitter music fans can tap on the “Learn about Rhapsody” button in any audio card to download the Rhapsody app. Once downloaded, Twitter music fans can explore the more than 34 million tracks in the Rhapsody catalog through an exclusive preview of the service. This offer is initially available in the U.S.
