RealNetworks to Launch Portable Music Service

Reuters: The worst kept secret in the digital music industry (even RNWK was not that keen on keeping it a secret..) The company is launching a portable music subscription service tomorrow, at its event at Radio City Music Hall, much as I expected...
The service will cost $14.95 per month, which includes a subscription to the Rhapsody service. Rhapsody subscribers currently pay $9.95 a month to listen to over 900,000 songs streamed to desktop computers.
Tune in tomorrow for more details...

Would be fun to see how they would ditch Real Audio format in favor of the microsoft format...and at the same time, keep on suing microsoft for monopoly behavior...
