Ratings and reviews

Terrible on so many levels. The most recent annoyance - If google loses the license to music in your playlists the phone will be forever trapped in a "looking for incomplete downloads" cycle. To fix it the user has to go through their own playlists and manually remove each song that google no longer has rights to. Seem like it would take one developer half a day to fix. What the actual, google? Additionally, about half the time the app won't open on the first try. Google play music was a much better app, but now we get this steaming pile.

I love Google products/apps. But this is such a poor "replacement" for Google Play Music. Truly disappointing. Its so busy, a bit confusing, plays commercials way too frequently, and now you can't cast your uploaded music to other Google products, like the Nest if you don't have a subscription. I uploaded my music collection consisting of about 10,000 songs; essentially all my ripped CD and digital music collection. Frustrating.

Could it be any worse? I don't think so. Way to go Google. Seriously, this is not a music app. Youtube Music is not meant for listening to music, that is clear, and this app for Android TV is definitely not meant for it. Why can't I load a playlist and put it on shuffle? Isn't this a pretty basic feature of every music app? I would think so. Also, don't mix liked youtube videos with liked music. Just because a youtube video features music doesn't mean it should show up in my music app. Music and youtube are two completely separate things and should remain that way. Please keep Google Play Music. It's so much better than this pathetic excuse for an app.
