UPDATE: To clarify, T-Mobile has told me that Music Freedom “only supports TuneIn Premium,” not the free version of TuneIn.
Ever since T-Mobile launched Music Freedom in June 2014, it’s been working to expand the offering and make even more music services free to stream for Magenta customers. Fast-forward to today and T-Mo says that customers using Music Freedom to stream 196 million songs per day, up 311 percent from when the Un-carrier move first launched. And now 11 more services are being added to Music Freedom. These new services are available to stream free with Music Freedom starting today, December 1:
- Aud.io: High-fidelity internet radio
- Dash Radio: DJ-driven radio, zero commercials, 24/7
- DatPiff: Mixtapes, hip hop music, videos and underground
- Jango: Internet radio that plays music you’ll love
- KCRW: Music discovery, NPR news, cultural exploration and informed public affairs
- Noon Pacific: A weekly mixtape of the best songs hand-picked from the best music blogs
- Radio Danz: The world’s pure dance channel
- SomaFM: Ambient, downtempo and chill beats from well-known and unknown artists
- Spinrilla: Hip-hop mixtape downloads and streams with no downloading limits
- StreamOn: Streaming music services powered by StreamOn. Next-level streaming products for the next era of radio
- TuneIn Premium: Access to every NFL, MLB, and Barclays Premier League game, over 600 commercial-free music stations, 40,000 audiobooks, and 16 language learning programs.
One of the biggest additions here is TuneIn Premium, a service that been letting users stream radio stations for quite a while. There are some other nice inclusions here too, like KCRW and Noon Pacific. It’s also just good to see that T-Mobile is still working to add more services to Music Freedom a year and a half after it was announced.
