Google has a long history of running multiple overlapping services at the same time, such as having a number of messaging services. Another example is in the field of music with Google Play Music, released in 2011 and YouTube Music, the "competitive" brand launched by Google to establish YouTube as a de facto music repository.
After years of uncertainty and cross-promotions, Google is finally paving the way to move Google Play Music users to YouTube Music. In the coming weeks, Google Play users will receive emails post officeand in-app prompts to transfer their libraries to YouTube Music. This transfer process will include all the main features of Google Play, including:
- Buy songs and albums
- Uploaded personal music (upload limit upgraded to 100.000 songs)
- Saved lists perproduction
- Subscriptions podcast
Users do not need to start the transfer at this time and free users will not be charged for new services. Those who wish to subscribe to Google Play Music for premium features such as radio streams without advertisements, they will find that their link goes directly to YouTube Music Premium , since both cost 7 euros for individual accounts.
We assume that at some point in the near future, Google will shut down Google Play Music.
