YouTube offline playback and play in the background gone?

[mvasquez009]

So I have play music all access and I used to have the YouTube music key and the features to hear the video sound outside of the app and to download a video but then I canceled my subscription and renewed it again a couple weeks later. And now I can't seem to find those features in YouTube? Are they permanently gone from the app or is it something I did?

Just checking--were these functions on the native YouTube app from Google? Or was it a 3rd party app? I thought that downloading YouTube videos or playing them in the background violated the YouTube API terms of service.

It was the official YouTube app.. They were only available for offline playback through YouTube.. Not stored locally on the device
