Milk Music was a freemium online music streaming service, with music streams and a recommendation engine powered by Slacker Radio,[1] that offered ad-supported free streaming and ad-free subscription streaming services originally meant to compete with Pandora.[2] When first introduced in March 2014, it was first available only as an app for Samsung headsets. In January 2015, Milk Music was made available to everyone as a website.[3]

Samsung began sunsetting Milk Music in September 2016, in the United States and some other markets,[4][5] and completed its worldwide shutdowns by October 23, 2017.[6] Any installed instance of the app will prompt the user to download Slacker Radio.[7]
