Rdio has been winning plaudits for its website’s design for a while, but the streaming music service has now given its mobile apps a similarly-elegant revamp, promising users that the iOS and Android apps are now “faster, sleeker, and easier to use”.

Early indications are that this second-screen aspect is getting particularly praised by Rdio users.
