For those on the "access" side, finding the right platform is what's important, and there's a new streaming service that's catching on amongst Canadians in a big way. Rdio (pronounced AR-dee-oh) was launched in 2010 by Janus Friis and Niklas Zennstrom, the co-founders of Skype and Kazaa. The fully licensed, 100 percent legal service offers unlimited, ad-free access to a massive catalogue of 12 million songs, all for a monthly subscription fee of $4.99, or $9.99 for the mobile version. There are three ways to access music through Rdio: web, app and mobile. Sign up to the regular version, and you can stream all of the songs directly from the website at Rdio.com, or through the desktop app. You can listen to full albums, create playlists, and listen to "Artist Radio," which helps you discover artists similar to ones you already know and love.
