Anu Kirk Vice president Rhapsody Music Service Real Networks Senior Director of Product Management, Rhapsody RealNetworks, Inc. Anu Kirk cannot escape music, no matter how hard he tries. First a (bad) drummer, then a (slightly less awful) classical oboe player, he succumbed to the siren song of rock and roll and synthesizers during his teenage years. As one of the first employees at Internet start-up TuneTo.com, Anu helped pioneer Internet radio while working on the business plan, products, and technology for what would become Rhapsody. Following a merger with Listen.com, Anu served as product manager for Rhapsody 1.0 and launched Rhapsody411, one of the first mobile phone music directory services. After a spell at Liquid Digital Media, Anu returned to Rhapsody to lead the product development team and help spearhead the creation of Rhapsody's unlimited access music experience. |
