Are we getting Google Music powered by Android tomorrow? That'd be cool.

On there is says Google doesn't have their license. Maybe they do. They maybe did it secretly.

Yeah that could be possible.

I'd love to see this. Just more things to add to my "all things Google" life anyway.

Android? Check
Chrome? Check
Google TV? Check
Google Music? Almost check

I can't wait for this. Not only cause it's been a long time coming, but also cause it's like another punch to face of Steve Jobs, or whoever is running the ship now.

Google NEEDS to create some kind of desktop app browser. Wither it's an actual desktop program (unlikely) or something done through the browser (more likely), casual users want to be able to find apps easier than going through the market on their phone. Adding music to it would be even better.

So, go to market.android.com/music. Just a redirect to homepage, right? Now go to market.android.com/anythingelse. 404 Error. The Music page is there, it's just being hidden.

Use subsonic for the time being. Works as advertised. I love it. Sure its on my computer and not in cloud but I have a computer that is on all day everyday.

So, go to Home - Android Market. Just a redirect to homepage, right? Now go to market.android.com/anythingelse. 404 Error. The Music page is there, it's just being hidden.

Good find!

The reason I think Google Music is taking so long to come out is this. We already know they want to be able to stream your music from the cloud (as shown as I/O 2010) but if everyone is storing their music in the cloud it takes up a hell of a lot of storage, not to mention could take an age to upload. So I think what they are trying to set up is something that will scan your music collection on your computer and note what music you have WITHOUT uploading anything other than the database. When you want to play a song the system checks it is in your collection database and streams from a copy they already have uploaded. Only if you have something they don't (that album by your brothers band for instance) will it get uploaded.

The problem with this is that the record labels cant know for sure you have bought the music or just downloaded it from a torrent site, so are wary of this. Hopefully Google can convince them of the folly of their ways.

I am way underwhelmed by Google Music so far. The Android app never remembers my credentials. I have to clear data every single time or reinstall the app. When it finally sees all my music, if I choose shuffle, it only plays the first song over and over -- until I manually touch the next song button. Then it works. That's far from being a desirable app for me. Amazon Cloud so far has the lead in streaming.

Well since you already resurrected this thread... There's definitely something going wrong for you. I never have any of those problems that you're having. You may want to reinstall it.
