Rhapsody is an
online music store subscription service based in
Seattle, Washington. On April 6, 2010, Rhapsody relaunched as a standalone company, separate from former parent
RealNetworks. Downloaded files come with restrictions on their use, enforced by
Helix, Rhapsody's version of
digital rights management enforced on AAC+ or WMA files. In the past, the service also sold individual MP3s without digital rights management restrictions.
