Rhapsody Rip off for a Mac

I recently tried to use Rhapsody with a 30 day free trial. Right up front I realized they alienate Mac users by only allowing their software to be downloaded to a PC. I still figured I'd at least give the online player a shot.

I made some playlist, and spent a lot of time using them online. A song would play for a little while, then stop. Some songs would not play at all. Even though Rhapsody says their website is compatible with Macs using Firefox or Safari I found it lacking so much that even before my month was up I canceled my membership.

I can't really figure out what Rhapsody is trying to accomplish. Their software will not work on a Mac, even as Macs continue to gain market share in the US and abroad. Their "to go" feature does not support Apple iPods, which are the most popular music device on earth. They do offer a "to go" app for the iPhone which has terrible ratings. Maybe they are owned by Microsoft or something. All I know is my Mac will stay far from Rhapsody.
