Other Intangible Assets
Other intangible assets with finite lives, comprised primarily of customer relationships, are amortized over their estimated useful lives. We recorded amortization expense of $1.9 million and $3.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $2.1 million and $4.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.
We estimate our future amortization expense for our intangible assets with finite lives to be as follows:

Actual amortization expense to be reported in future periods could differ from these estimates because of new intangible asset acquisitions, changes in useful lives or other relevant factors or changes.
