Google Play Music will be avoided soon and the transition to YouTube Music lately leaves a lot to be desired.For users with downloaded music, the motion tool will bring your music smoothly, but once you’re in the YouTube Music interface, notice that many features have disappeared and that the pieces that worked loose in the past are not offered.If my inbox is an indication, hordes of other people are looking for alternatives.
However, Google is ignoring google Music’s migrant considerations.In reaction to the articles we wrote here, such as “YouTube Music has my speakers to ask for ransom”, Google contacted us and sent us a statement:
We perceive that online content is an integral component of listening fun for many YouTube Music users.Although many features of the recently uploaded content don’t appear in the loose music you enjoy YouTube Music, we’re working hard to fill those gaps and bring in more features.to our user’s loose offer. We hope to share more updates soon.
Although a little vague, the cry of users of downloaded content is a replacement for the tone of what the company said in June.Our YouTube Music article focused on loose feature adjustments compared to premium features on YouTube Music and Google Music, adding the monthly payment requirement to play purchased and downloaded music from Google Home speakers.Before we published this article, we checked with Google to ask if billing for YouTube Google Home music was what was intended, and the company would only reaffirm the existing restrictions.
We were also able to have a brief conversation with Brandon Bilinski, product manager of YouTube Music, and the main message we won was that the transition of YouTube Music was more about merging the logo and infrastructure than a replacement in the strategy or more paid subscriptions.The main replacements shown, announced in the week of angels, are the closure of the desktop program of the operating system “Music Manager” and the release of Google’s release of the sale of songs on demand of angels.You can download music by dragging and dropping from the website, and YouTube Music will respect your Google Music song purchases.
The closing of Google Music begins this month, the music was deleted in December.For the record, we’ve discussed all the major youTube Music deficiencies we might think of, such as having to pay the monthly streaming license to stream audio to the speakers, download music to play offline, sort music lists, edit Song Data Array for Android Auto and a strange combination of YouTube content and music.While Google doesn’t need to publicly dedicate itself to a calendar or promise it will come with express features, it is at least aware of existing feature gaps and what other people complain about.
I think a big component of the challenge is that Google has only been very transparent about the negative component of its roadmap.It announced in detail Google Music’s closing plans 4 months in advance.This is a smart thing, but I would, too.to counter all this negative data and get into the main points of the positive facets of your YouTube Music roadmap.Of course, talking only about the negative gives everyone a negative impression and, especially given how some Google closures have spread in the past, has led others to look for alternatives.
The company clearly hopes that this will calm the fears of Google Music migrants, but time is running out!Google Music streaming stops for most countries around the world in October.The company has only two months to offer some of the main features if you need to keep the music of your former Google Music customers.Some of the feature parity paintings on the YouTube Music team are already visible, with the help of voice control for downloaded YouTube Music playlists.that were only tested last week. The company has also spent months creating the migration tool, which looks great, and I think with this it becomes transparent that Google didn’t need to make all these paintings just to cause a massive exodus of service.
