Rdio to Introduce a $3.99 Monthly Streaming Service

BuzzFeed: Seeking to gain ground in the war over streaming music, Rdio plans to introduce a low-cost mobile subscription plan offering limited downloads from its library of songs. The San Francisco-based music service, which is scrambling to compete with the likes of Spotify and a forthcoming service being developed by Apple, said that it will offer a significantly limited subscription plan for $3.99 a month. It hopes the price will lure listeners who don’t want to pay the industry standard $9.99 a month for unlimited access to millions of songs.
