Samsung Joins Music Fray in Europe

MocoNews reports that Samsung has partnered with MusicNet to launch a music download and subscription service in the UK, France and Germany.

According to the story, the new subscription service allows unlimited downloads and listens as long as the subscription is valid. However, if people want to own the songs, they will also be able to purchase individual tracks. This is similar to how Napster-To-Go and other subscription music services work over here in the U.S.

The new music service only works on certain European Samsung phones, though others can be updated via a special software update.
