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.
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, or an internal memory location depending on the device. That means customers can access their music while away from network coverage, such as on a subway, or airplane.
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.
