AfterDawn: News

Just months after Yahoo! added searchable lyrics to their Yahoo! Music service, RealNetworks has done the same for their Rhapsody Online music service. Rhapsody Online is the web-based version of the company's subscription service and it has been decently popular since its launch. Users will now be able to view and search for legal lyrics from their favorite songs.

The new lyrics comes courtesy of a deal with LyricFind which has deals with the major music labels to license the lyrics.



According to Real, the new lyrics database is indexed in such a way that search engines can pick it up and drive more traffic to Rhapsody. Lyric searches are very popular on search engines and Real hopes the addition of the lyrics will bring some extra customers to the service.
