YouTube Music could make Google Play Music disappear on Android
Table of contents:
YouTube Music arrived in Spain a few months ago to compete directly with other streaming platforms, such as Apple Music or Spotify. What is different about this Google model is its synchronization with YouTube to view video clips, exclusive content and music, lots of music. However, there was something strange, since Google retains Google Play Music, another music streaming service that is also the default player on Android devices. It seems that the big G will take a step and could remove Google Play Music.
In a YouTube Music update, signs of new features were found to add our own music without having to subscribe to the platform, something that Google Play Music already allows us to do. Although what is interesting is a new icon that has been leaked. The file name is “system installed release”. Referring to the fact that might be the icon that arrives with the default app. Therefore, it is very likely that YouTube Music will make Google Play Music disappear and it will stay as default app. Today it does not make sense that Google has two music services, which are also very similar. Of course, in some countries if a user contracts Google Play Music, he also has the YouTube Music service.
Nothing confirmed
Therefore, it's not surprising that Google gets rid of Play Music and includes the features of this application in YouTube Music. In this way, the new music platform will have the possibility of adding a premium subscription (ranging from 10 euros per month) or introducing our music files. At the moment, Google has not confirmed anything and there is no leak that fully demonstrates that Google Play Music will be removed from Android It remains to wait and see if this finally happens. Google Play Music is still available on Google Play. In the event that the app was removed, it was likely through an update.
