Default Roadtech/Zumo GPS units and music

Does anyone know if the 550/660/665 will work with Rhapsody subscription music service? I think the only requirement is that it has to be capable of playing DRM music, but i can't find any info on it.

and all this time I thought the GPS was for directions and the MP3 player was for the music. Guess I have been using it wrong.

I have a Garmin Nuvi 780 GPS that has a MP3 player built in. It's also got blue tooth . It's not waterproof but I've never been caught in heavy rain with it. You can get used ones for under $100 on e-bay. I don't know if you can download Rhapsody or not. It takes an SD card and I just download from i-tunes to the SD card. I have a handlebar mount on my 09 FLHP.

Wish I could offer real help, but if there is a problem with playing it, you can use a third party software like melodycan to convert your drm music and other protected formats to standard mp3 formats. That's what I did for the stuff I had downloaded from iTunes so I could play it on my 660.

That's a common mistake, many people don't know about the dual uses of today's electronics. For example, I'm actually posting this message with my coffee maker . BTW, didn't know about MelodyCan...aaaaaawesoooome!!! I thought they were all a bunch of crap, but it worked first try.
