You can play YouTube videos in the background

[CarbonOak]

It's not Nexus- or Lollipop-specific; you just need the latest version of YouTube.

You can only do this if you have a Google Play Music All Access subscription, or are part of the YouTube Music Key beta.

Ahhh, so getting the 6 months of Play Music for free when I got my Nexus is what enabled that?

I've never used Play Music before, and definitely didn't plan on it after this 6 months. But I've really been enjoying it this far. $99 for a year may not be that bad. Cheaper than Netflix lol.

Yes. It's an awesome service and I've been using it ever since they initially released it. Unlimited music with skipping and scannig, phone caching, auto-syncing playlists. I love it.

I've been using YouTube background playback Xposed module.

Bro, there's more simple way and we don't need xposed module for that. Also, Xposed supports only rooted devices, so what about Non Rooted devices. There is a much simpler way to play YouTube videos in the background while you can use other apps on your device. I have seen this on a blog called techposts, here's the linkHow to Play Youtube Videos in Background on Firefox for Android

YouTube Background Playback and YouTube Adaway is a great Youtube combo for those that are rooted and running Xposed.
