Rhapsody isn’t the only outlet to feature the album early — The Guardian is streaming it today, too — but the portability that Rhapsody offers is certainly enticing.
The music subscription service is also offering a ton of editorial content, including videos, the band’s responses to subscriber questions, and other interviews and tidbits.
More and more, bands are releasing music via alternative distribution channels, such as Rhapsody, which has also premiered music from artists like Jack Johnson, The Black Eyed Peas and Zac Brown. Other services, like Spotify (which premiered R.E.M.’s last album, for one), have had si milar initiatives, and Facebook has afforded fans early looks at music from the likes of J-Lo and Lil’ Wayne.
