Music Pets was a Facebook game developed by Conduit Labs in 2010. This game included music licensed from Universal Music Group, as well as 150,000 tracks from independent labels (such as Beggars Group, DFA, Domino, Downtown Records, and Modular). At its peak, Music Pets had 1.2 million monthly users.[1][2]

In August 2010, Conduit Labs was acquired by Zynga, and Music Pets shut down on September 17.[3]

Gameplay

Music Pets was similar to Pet Society, another Facebook app. Both games allowed users to decorate their pet's room and feed it. The user could also make their pet happy by playing licensed songs. The pet could also "fetch" tracks by the user's favorite artists. The user could also play their music with their Facebook friends, as well as visit the "mayor" of the game.

Since some artists were not available in the game, the game would suggest similar artists. For example, Music Pets did not have any tracks by Theory of a Deadman, but there were songs by Nickelback.[4]
