    It's sad, but I didn't even have idea Samsung had its only video streaming service :O

    ''So many video streaming services, so little time. Samsung's Milk Video appears to be finding it a tough crowd to break into and has announced on the app's Google Play listing that it'll be shuttering the service come November 20 -- which should have been the app's first birthday. Until then, the app will continue to offer up the likes of movie trailers, live music shows and content made by the likes of College Humor and Buzzfeed. If that sounds an awful lot like Youtube, then you can probably see the issue. Samsung maintains that its Milk music service will continue to run for the time being -- which is a completely different fight.''

    I've actually seen this on my tablet, but haven't checked it out. I've clicked it by accident before, but have canceled it right away, because I was in the middle of trying to do something else, and didn't want or need to be interrupted. I guess there's no point in doing so now. I'm not sure I'd have been interested in most of it, but I do check out Buzzfeed sometimes.

    Sadly it's gone, Diane, but I am not surprised, it seems it has been a couple of rough years for several companies who had to stop offering certain services or selling certain devices, take as an example amazon with their smart phone or was it a tablet?
