This is the music application that will arrive installed on your next Android

Things are changing on Android. Soon the tenth version of Google's operating system will arrive, which will no longer be accompanied by the name of a dessert. It will be Android 10, plain, and it will come with its dark mode for everyone under its arm, with more security and with changes in the field of applications. Specifically in the disappearance of Google Play Music, its Spotify-style music service. But what application or service will replace it? Well, it has already been revealed.
Google itself has indicated that, in the next Android terminals with Android 10, YouTube Music will be the application that arrives installed by default. But not only that. The terminals that are launched from now on also with Android 9 will include the change. So the measure is definitive, and in the coming months it will be carried out emphatically.
The loser in this war is Google Play Music. This completes the move to throw this service into oblivion in pursuit of what YouTube Music has already been offering: a streaming music service to watch and listen to songs what we want, when we want. It even allows us to turn off the device's screen to listen to music from a video clip. Something that users who do not pay for it cannot enjoy.
What if I use Google Play Music?
According to the head of YouTube Music, Brandon Bilinski, when you unbox your next Android 9 or Android 10, you will no longer find Google Play Music. However, if you are a subscriber user and pay for the service, the application will continue to be available in the Google Play Store That is, as one more tool. It won't be gone forever, but will be forgotten in the app store, available only to those who haven't made the jump to YouTube Music.
Now it only remains to see when Google will give the final shot to this service. Google Play Music has already brought music libraries to YouTube Music, so it's basically the same service through different apps. With the extra of enjoying the videos in the latter. Or the music of the videos with the mobile screen turned off.In addition, it is known that Google's intentions are to terminate Google Play Music, but it continues to lengthen what to give the finishing touch to it without a definitive date Perhaps because users still do not they know about YouTube Music, so they are also doing strong promotional campaigns. At the moment things continue, although betting on YouTube in the next terminals.
