There is speculation about Apple’s stand whether it will accept the entry of Rhapsody app as it may consider the streaming service a direct competition to its iTunes digital media storefront. But RealNetworks sources believe Apple will accept Rhapsody as iTunes is set to become huger than what it is now and it does not make sense rejecting a streaming music app at this stage.
