Aladdin – where Rhapsody came from
February 25, 2009 No comments yet
As I was thinking more about TuneTo and reading the Wikipedia article about Rhapsody, it made me smile remembering the good ol’ times when Alex and I built a prototype right after Christmas 2000 called Aladdin.
[Except originally we called it SNapster for “Super Napster”, something the article doesn’t say!]
Digging around my HD, I actually found it! The service obviously is not up anymore but here’s a screenshot of what gave the idea to Listen to buy us (and build Rhapsody).
The concept was that you could search for any song, album or artist and you could stream the music as if it was on your HD. The catch is that you’d have to pay to stream it (and keep streaming it). Sounds familiar isn’t it?
Look at this. Not even 2 weeks of development if I recall…
Radiohead rocks

Update:The previous YouTube was removed. I updated it ant put another one. The song is called “Gagging Order”.
I can’t help it. Thom keeps amazing me. Even B-sides of unknown albums are total gems years later. I found something incredible after deciding to try out Pandora a few days ago. I know why so late? Well I am kinda biased and a bit annoyed that Pandora is nothing more than what I tried to do at TuneTo.com 10 years ago. Has it been 10 years already!? I was just a bit too early. Story of my life. But at least I can say I sold it and it ended up being useful. Anyway, listen to this song, just so simple yet amazing…
