Running Music for Rhapsody Users Now Available at RhapsodyRunningMusic.com

Hi Rhapsody users! Welcome to the launch of RhapsodyRunningMusic.com.

Here's the pitch:

Do you run to music but experience the frustration of the song tempos not matching your pace? Join the new craze that's getting people to truly enjoy running and other workouts. It's BPM-running, also known as pace running, or music-paced running. You could make a BPM running playlist by determining your various running paces in steps-per-minute then finding tunes that have a beats-per-minute (BPM) that matches your paces. Or, you could have someone else do it for you.

That's where a new website, RhapsodyRunningMusic.com, comes in. They've determined the BPMs of over 600 tunes of various genres so you don't have to. And more are added every month. And they provide play links to the tracks on Rhapsody. If you're new to Rhapsody, you can play the full tunes right on Rhapsody or in a downloadable player 25 times a month. Or, better yet, you can subscribe to Rhapsody, use RhapsodyRunningMusic.com to find tunes that match your paces, make your own playlists, and download the tunes, or purchase the MP3s . Then you can add them to your player and have them always available for your workouts. RhapsodyRunningMusic.com also has prepared playlists that may just suit your tastes. Tell us what you think about this great new service. We know it'll get you up and running to the beat in no time.

We welcome comments and suggestions. Just post them here.
