No. Muve is not a music streaming application. Each song is downloaded to the phone for a smooth listening experience no matter what type of network coverage is available.

My DJ is for discovering new music, while My Music lets you manage the music you have already downloaded.

When you share playlists, songs, albums or genres with Muve Music, recipients can download them instantly. So, they have to be on Muve Music in order to ‘share the love’.

Cricket’s customers love music. In fact, we are the number two seller of ringback tones in the nation. And our customers want the value and convenience of unlimited music downloads without a credit card or computer. Muve Music marries our strength in music with our unlimited model and no signed contracts, providing customers with a music service that fits their lifestyle and their budget.

Muve Music will have a robust catalog of music content which includes the four major record labels: Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment and EMI Music. We are continuing to sign up independent labels to continue to expand our catalog.

Muve Music is a download service. Muve Music downloads the music directly to the specially designed memory card in the phone. That means customers can access their music while away from network coverage, such as on a subway or airplane. 

Typically, between 10-20 seconds, depending on connectivity and song length.

Song sound is excellent because Cricket uses cutting edge compression technology to create the perfect balance between file size and audio quality.  This allows consumers to fit a large amount of music on their phone (up to 3,000 tracks), download new songs significantly faster than any other service (as fast as 10 seconds) and have it all in glorious High-Quality Stereo. Licensed from Orban, a leader in world-class professional broadcast technology, the Muve Music library is encoded in HE-AAC v2.

The music collection is stored on a proprietary memory card, built by SanDisk, that is included with the phone. The memory card can be only read by the handset and it is not possible to burn tracks to a CD.  However, the Samsung Suede is equipped with Bluetooth wireless, and music can be wirelessly projected to high-quality speakers in almost any location.

It is not possible to transfer a Muve Music collection from the phone to a computer.

Muve Music was designed for music and podcasts are not available at this time.    

The plan includes unlimited music downloads, plus text, talk, data, video and picture messaging.

Yes, Cricket offers discounts for multi-line accounts.

There is no limit for Ringback tones, but the service can only hold up to 150. So, you will have to delete ringback tones once you reach that threshold.

No. With Cricket’s Muve Music rate plan, there are no download fees. There is no monthly cost for music subscriptions. Unlimited music is just included in the customer’s wireless rate plan (like unlimited talk, text, web or 411).

 Muve Music and the Samsung Suede debuted at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, January 6-10, 2011. The service is available at select Cricket company-owned stores and at www.mycricket.com, as well as through select partner retail outlets.

No, unlimited access is included in the rate plan.
