Bloom.fm

Bloom.fm was a cloud-based digital music service that operated from 2011 to 2014. The service offered users access to a large catalog of music through streaming and downloading options, primarily focusing on a subscription-based model.

Bloom.fm differentiated itself by offering a highly affordable subscription option, often compared to a "digital radio" experience, allowing users to discover new music within curated genres. Higher subscription tiers provided on-demand access to specific tracks and albums.

The service was available on a variety of platforms, including web browsers and mobile apps for iOS and Android devices.

Bloom.fm faced challenges in a competitive market dominated by larger, more established music streaming services. Ultimately, the company ceased operations in January 2014, citing difficulties in achieving sustainable profitability and competing with larger players in the industry. Prior to its shutdown, Bloom.fm attempted to transition to a music download store model, but this effort was ultimately unsuccessful.
