Google Music Beta

Google is already jumping on the bandwagon of streaming music from anywhere and anything. Burrowing the idea from Amazons Cloud Drive – Google is allowing users to upload their own music and stream it from anything from android tablets to their computer to their phone. It’s pretty amazing and a step in the right direction for music lovers. As of right now the service is free but you can only join by getting an invitation from Google. I’ll leave a link at the bottom for you to request an invitation. I imagine they will only let you try out their service is if you have all of the following: Google Chrome, you have an Android Phone and you have an Android Tablet, but you can still test your luck if you don’t have all three of those.

Let’s move onto features. The now dubbed “Google Music Beta” is very much a large syncing tool. Any music you add to the music cloud automatically gets synced to your Android Phone and Android Tablet. Note it is not keeping all these songs physically on your phone hard drives or computer hard drives. It is just connecting them all together via internet. So anywhere you have internet you’ll have full access to all your music. “But what if I don’t have internet where I am at?” you ask. Google has you covered. It saves a portion of the songs you last listened to your hard drive. So again not ALL of your songs are on your hard drive, just some and they will change depending on what you were listening to earlier that day.

So far it seems pretty amazing. I can’t wait to see if I get invited. Keep a look out for Apple doing something similar in the near future. With this new kind of service Google has put out; if Apple doesn’t keep up Itunes might get demolished. Looking forward to see what they are going to unveil also. So let me hear what you have to think about Google Music Beta! Good idea or bad? Do you think Apple can top it?
