rdio Grand Opening

Rdio Logo.png While the crowd, admittedly small, on Hacker News wasn’t too excited, I have to say I’m intrigued by the recently widely opened rdio. The company’s blog has some of the product details including:

  • Select any and all of our seven million songs and play them, on-demand, as much as you want.

  • Sync as many songs as you can fit on your phone, and play them even when you’re offline (and of course, play everything when you’re online).

  • Follow friends to find new music, rather than staring at an empty search box

  • Find friends from Twitter, Facebook and email

  • Discover music in industry insiders’ Collections and Playlists, such as Spin Magazine, Pitchfork, KCRW Radio, The FADER and XLR8R Magazine

Not sure I’ll be into all the social features, but having a huge music library accessible from an iPod Touch is enticing.

Reminds me that I should check out last.fm’s iPod Touch client, if it exists.
