Rhapsody president shaves head as service tops 1 million paid U.S. subscribers

. Rhapsody announced on Thursday that it now has more than 1 million paying subscribers in the United States. The company claims it is now the top pay-for music streaming company in the country, although we imagine Spotify is nipping at its heals now that it has more than 2.5 million subscribers globally. In celebration of the milestone, Rhapsody president Jon Irwin shaved his head, a promise he made to the company if it ever reached million subscribers. “We've accomplished quite a bit over the past decade, so it's no small statement to say that 2011 was probably our biggest year yet,” Irwin said.
