Transferring almost a decade of audio has been difficult at the best of times and frustrating when it has been accrued, catalogued, and refined over this period.Īlthough I will say outright that YouTube Music has come on leaps and bounds, it still is nowhere near the full Google Play Music replacement that it ought to be at this stage of 2021. I managed to transfer a decent-sized 10,000-track library of over 1,000 albums and numerous more playlists. I was a subscriber reluctant to fully move over and switch to YouTube Music but did so in an attempt to ease the pain of switching ahead of the inevitable shutdown. I, like you, already miss Google Play Music. It’s really hard to let go of such an awesome music player, one that at least in terms of features was still way ahead of where YT Music is right now. Some of the core features like the ability to upload your offline library was really a killer addition that made it such a fantastic streaming app and endeared it to millions of hardcore fans around the globe.
Unfortunately, while Google Play Music was ultimately flawed, it was still one of a kind.
With Google Play Music now double dead and even fully disabled on devices in favor of YouTube Music, if you’re simply not a fan of the replacement, you might be looking for some serious audio alternatives.
