The Channel Guide

To view the Channel Guide, click Rhapsody Music Guide in the Sources area, then click the Channel Guide tab at the top of the Display area. Visit the Channel Guide for live streaming (process of breaking a large audio or video file into smaller pieces and transferring it, piece by piece, so it can be viewed immediately rather than waiting for the whole file to be downloaded) internet radio stations, and commercial-free Rhapsody Channels. Listening to Rhapsody Channels is like listening to the radio in your car, only better. Rhapsody streams high quality Channels grouped by genre (type or category; for example: rock, classical, or rap), single artist, or with the appropriate membership, your own custom lists of artists. And with a single click, you can have Rhapsody create a custom "My Rhapsody Channel" for you, based on your preferences and listening history.

With the appropriate membership and a Rhapsody MP3 Player, you can transfer Rhapsody Channels to your portable device.
