YouTube is currently running what it describes as a “small experiment globally,” warning users to toggle off their ad blockers and avoid being limited to only three video views.
Google Play Music got axed for a shitty YouTube run app with less features.
It had support for uploading and storing local music so if you didn’t pay monthly you still had access to music you “bought” on other platforms. It was about the only thing that they put out that was worth paying monthly for.
Ah ok, you are talking about the transition from Play Music to Youtube Music. I still use Youtube Music and I have to say I am fine with it, the ability to add videos from Youtube to playlists is useful when you find some obscure cover of something. But I never uploaded my music in the past and I understand where you are coming from if you liked the feature, also I have a family split plan.
