Unable to find Google Play music.

[Android Central Question]

So I have a very odd problem. When I mark my songs for offline use in Google Play Music, they download just fine and are available offline. However, when I go to the /sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.music/cache directory, there are no files in there.

Does anyone know how to find my files or fix what's wrong?

The files are probably hidden to make it impossible for users to simply copy (and possibly pirate) the songs.

If you don't buy the album's they're stored in your temporary memory for easy access. As much digging through your files would go, I don't think you're gonna find them.

As indicated - you won't find them. This is by request of the music companies, to prevent copying. The only way to find them - set Google Play Music to show only offline content.
