Another music streaming service is leaving us. Rdio has declared bankruptcy and intends to shutdown. We liked Rdio and we'll be sad to see it go. This continues to be a competitive space and there may still be some services that don't make it. Pandora is acquiring what will be left of Rdio after bankruptcy is complete so it might result in an interesting change for Pandora. Until then, The Verge has an interesting take on the downfall of Rdio.
“From the start, though, Rdio was in trouble. Even in late 2010, when it began to spread among design-savvy early adopters in San Francisco, people were already talking about the coming launch of Spotify.”
