Okay everyone, so I'm not sure who uses Google Play Music here but for those who do, do you find annoying that it doesn't continuously play that artist you've selected? For example I like certain bands and it'll play music like them to start off with, but it won't play them continuously song after song after song. Is there any reason why? It's kind of annoying!

I never like Google play music so hard to use it, not like itunes. For my nexus 6 I use musixmatch free apps, so far I'm very happy including karaoke style lyrics while playing.

I'm sorry you use what's app? Well, the one reason I do like google play music especially on a nexus fixed as we had that has a digital equalizer setting built-in and really boost the bass of certain songs and he's you 3d surround sound is the Nexus 6 of course has dual stereo front facing speakers. Not every app offers. Unfortunately :-(

you're talking about the "musix" ? I also love it but sometimes there's a lag in the lyrics and it's real annoying,...
Well, like I said, the one reason I like google play music is because another digital built in equalizer for the dual boom speakers on the Nexus 6. Not every music app including and Pandora can say that. And you can hear the difference.

That's not how Google play works. If you search Google Play for say, the Rolling Stones , it will start Rolling Stones Radio, then yes it will play the Rolling Stones first, then it creates a pkaylist of the Rolling Stones and similar artists. I've found the easiest way just to hear one artist is to say from the phone's home screen, "OK Google", "play the Rolling Stones " Google Play then opens and plays all Rolling Stones.
Google Play is a powerful app. Once you figure it out it is incredible!

Well that's usually how it works but I have found the times when l play one song by the artist and wanted to play, and no other songs by that particular artist. Google play music still a nice application to use and I was just curious about it

What I like the best is the ability to download songs, albums, playlists, etc for offline use without buying the music. But, I think that's only available if you have All Access.

The correct that's only if you have all access for Google play music. I just do the Google Play Music Radio essentially.

Are you using the radio feature? The radio feature is supposed to play that artist + other ones that are similar -- that is the point of it. Do you have the subscription to All Access?

I haven't found it to be confusing. It is pretty straightforward.

Yeah I'm just using the google play music radio. Overall that's a great app. Very powerful. Just sometimes it doesn't make sense with they play. That's all.

Google Play Music is a lot of different things.

You're talking about the "Radio" feature, which is, amazingly, free.

My estimation is that they cannot give you all one artist free because then you'd never have any reason to buy the music of that artist. The artist would object and it's not in Google's interest.

They have other services. They sell the albums of those artists, digitally. If you could get non-stop streaming of that artist, you'd never need to buy the albums.

They also have the All Access subscription service for on-demand streaming music, for a monthly fee. with that you could probably stream all one artist because you're paying.

The "Radio" stations are mixes of similar artists. It's pretty nice that they're free.

If you have Amazon Prime, you get an amazing deal on free music with the Amazon Music app. You can stream millions of songs, countless complete albums and add them to your online library... you can even download them to your devices, all included the annual cost of Prime. I assume if you cancel prime that you lose the library and downloaded music on your devices.

Yeah that's true. Same thing as Pandora. If they let me listen to all of the free music I wanted to. I suppose no one would ever want to buy the music do I can certainly understand that for sure. I was just wondering, that's all. The one thing again that okay music still has over Pandora is the built in digital equalizer, that's for sure.

I'm also looking to other streaming music services on Google Play Store this morning. Tried Spotify but you're only skip a few songs with Ford asks you for a paid subscription. Are there any other recommendations at all for this kind of a service?

I use Play Music to play my personal music library (I'm old school). I have a lot of CDs that I ripped onto the computer and added to my Play Music library and stream it to my speakers (car and home). I now buy music from the Play store, which adds it to my library.

I have started playing around with the free subscription that I have, but I mostly play the music I own. You'll like it once you get used to it. Myself, I love it. Been using it for years now.

No no see for the most part, I am very much used to it for sure! I was just curious as to whether or not everyone else here uses Google play music as well. Thanks though. I've got my play lists already setup on play music.
