Rhapsody's new music feature is designed for kids

Over the past few months, Rhapsody has focused on making its mobile apps prettier. But now the music-streaming service is announcing something a little bit different: a feature designed with children in mind. KIDS, which will be available via an update for Rhapsody's iOS and Android apps, is a mode for young ones to experience without parents having to worry about them running into Dr Dre's Compton -- or another album with Parental Advisory. Instead, KIDS consists of three main sections with kids-friendly, parent-approved music, like recently played songs, a tab for bookmarks and another for curated content from Rhapsody's editorial team. The company says it'll offer tracks from Kidz Bop and Disney, among others.

If you're already a subscriber, finding it is easy; once you've selected it from the main navigation, you can pass it on to your kid and they can start listening right away. It should show up on Android now, while the iOS version is expected to be live as soon as Apple approves the refreshed application.
