Unable to use Resource owner credentials of Oauth2 for Rdio

We are using rdio to get music from rdio in our app. We have used OAuth2.0 for authentication. Currently we are using authorization code. I am exploring to switch to Resource owner credentials documented in (http://www.rdio.com/developers/docs/web-service/oauth2/auth-password/ref-oauth2-auth-password ). I have created the app in rdio site, obtained the client_id and client_secret. I am making POST call to https://services.rdio.com/oauth2/token and passing username= password= (HTTP Authorization header method of client verification) . The response comes as "error_code":"unauthorized_client" "error_description": "This client is not authorized to use the password grant". I have tried to substitute username and password with real username and password, but that doesn't work. Is it the validity of client_id and client_secret that is the issue? I've followed all the steps to T. Please let me know what am i doing wrong?
Regards Vinay

This OAuth 2.0 grant isn't available to every one, the documentation says:

This method is limited to trusted Rdio partners. Please contact us if you feel your application needs to use this method.
