    Google Music is their cloud app.
    Allows you to upload 20,000 songs and has an all-access subscription

    How would I go about adding/syncing all the songs I already have in music player with that. Looks like what you have suggested will do me instead of iTunes for downloading.

    Thanks

    You download the Music Manager application from it, point that to the folder you keep your music in and it uploads them all. Theyre then available through the app on your phone/tablet and through the web interface too

    You download it to your PC, it uploads your music to the cloud and they instantly become available on your Android devices in Google Play Music. You can then pin songs or albums to the Android devices, they download to the device for offline use (do this on Wifi). Google Play Music also automatically caches the last 100 songs you play so they are saved local if you want to play them again.

    As they are in the cloud you can login to your Google account using any browser and play/download them from there on any platform, Mac, Windows and linux. You can even download your music collection on someone elses PC ;)

    Apologies,

    How do I pin a song. Thought I saw an icon earlier but cannot now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,054 ✭✭✭✭Professey Chin


    Not sure if you can pin individual songs or only albums and playlists.
    Probably easier to add it to a playlist and pin that

    Add it to a playlist, an album is automatically a playlist
