Samsung partners with Google to make Play Music default music player and service on its devices

After Samsung shut down its U.S. mobile music service, Milk Music, the South Korean tech company turns to Google and makes its Play Music the default music player and service on its new phone and tablets worldwide. This begins with the new Galaxy S8 and S8+. As a bonus, Samsung users will get to upload 100,000 of their own songs to Google Play Music for free, which is double the storage capacity Google offers its users. New Samsung phones also get a three-month trial of Google Play Music’s subscription service and access to YouTube Red.

Google has also promised it’ll work with Samsung’s Bixby, the company’s own personal assistant software, so you can ask it to play a particular song, among others.
