Milk Music? Is that the best name that they could come up with.
Who the fuck decided on “Milk Music” for a name?
Well, they’ve milked their s̶l̶a̶v̶e̶s̶ users in every other way. Why not music?
“that reflects our innovation leadership” XD
“built around what matters most to them and their lifestyle.”
The usual samsung blanks that generally makes no sense and makes even less sense for music.
‘Milk’ lol terrible name. How long until it becomes paying? Two weeks?
Samsung is EXPLICITLY SPAMMING this nonsense on other Apple websites. And now you guys report it for FREE?! That’s crazy.
Send every one of them to prison.
You are 100% correct. I come here for Apple news and rumors not to read about ScamScum and their Lactose Radio BS.
Got Milk?
Never again. Never again shall I listen to music without thinking of those terrible. “Got Milk” commercials.
Can Samsung make a product or service without copying its competitors? Or must they copy something and call it the “next big thing” and say thats its already here.
Please take a look at those buttons closely. Apparently when Apple threw out the visual style of iOS 6, Samsung dug through the trash and took the designs.
Males sense, they been milking their customers for years…now they do it using music
