Rdio has launched the beta version of their Android app which will allow for unlimited music streaming on Android devices.
In October 2009, billionaires Janus Friis and Niklas Zennstrom, the creators of the Kazaa P2P client as well as Skype, announced that they had developed and financed the unlimited music subscription service, and the company introduced the service last month.

Separating the service from others like Rhapsody is the fact that Rdio allows users to listen from anywhere in "the cloud," including through their phones, instead of needing to download DRM-laced music locally.
Furthermore, Rdio has many social networking features connected to Facebook and Twitter.

Rdio has over five million tracks available from the major labels and thousands of indies.

To have access at home and via your phone, the service costs $10 per month. The beta is currently private,but TechCrunch has some.
