Troubles with the new Rhapsody- ratings and radio stations?

Question

I was wondering if my ratings will be transferred over to Rhapsody later on? I installed and transferred my music over now, as I am an unlimited subscriber, but none of my ratings are there. Also, I was wondering if there will be an equivalent of "my radio station" in Rhapsody?

Answer 1

Thank you for your questions.

Your Yahoo! Music ratings will not be transferred to Rhapsody. (You can read about this and other FAQs at http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/music/r...

The reason we did not transfer ratings was because Yahoo! Music will continue to allow ratings of artists, tracks and albums on its Web site -- even after the account transfers.

We did not want to set the expectation that the ratings that reside on the Yahoo! Music site would be kept in synch with the ratings in Rhapsody when they would not in fact have been kept in synch.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

There absolutely is personalized radio in Rhapsody. Just install the Rhapsody software, click the Channel Guide tab, and then click the "Create Custom Channel" button. This allows you to manually "seed" the station with your favorite artists.

You can also just play "My Rhapsody Channel." This Channel is automatically seeded based on your playback history within Rhapsody.
