With today’s release of its Galaxy S III smartphone in Europe, Samsung also announced a streaming music service, Music Hub. It’ll presumably arrive here in the States along with the SIII in July, offering 19 million songs for purchase and cloud-based storage, allowing online listening among all devices.

The premium option runs 9.99 euros, which amounts to around $16 monthly. It’s a bit pricey—besides unlimited streaming, MH Premium also provides a feature almost identical to iTunes Match, which itself only retails $24.99 a year. But if you’re a dedicated Samsung user, it’s the most integrated experience.
