A million paid users, 10 million songs per day for Rhapsody

Online subscription music service Rhapsody has crossed a million paid subscribers. Also, there are around 10 million songs played everyday.

"We've accomplished quite a bit over the past decade, so it's no small statement to say that 2011 was probably our biggest year yet," John Irwin, who shaved his head celebrating the achievement (as promised to users) said in a statement. "I told our team that when we topped one million paid subscribers, I'd shave my head...it was probably the best free haircut I've ever had."
