What is the deal with Rhapsody?

Help please…i just bought my new Sansa Clip last night.  In the Quick Start guide it says that creating a Rhapsody account is the only way to activate all of the features on the Sansa Clip.  What does this mean?  What features don’t work without a Rhapsody account?  If I had known this I might have bought a different player…can anyone help me understand what “features” won’t work without the Rhapsody account?

thanks!!

The only “Feature” that requires rhapsody is the feature of wasting extra money on a subscription music service. If you already have the music, then all you need is a program to dip CDs to your computer, and then you can use windows explorer to add the music to your player.
