Apple Music is not available for a week, but music listeners now have a new free streaming service to consider: Google Play Music. The company added a free level of service on the web and its applications iOS and Android, Google announced Tuesday.
Like other streaming music services that offer a free version, the new level of Google Play Music it comes to advertising on the web and mobile applications. Instead of a model of low demand as Spotify, the new free offer Google will focus on a selection of curated stations, mostly drawn genres, moods, activities or specific albums and songs.
To feed these stations, Google is taking advantage of the acquisition last year Songza whose team has helped create thousands of free stations available on the service.
"Our team of music experts, including the people who created Songza, will make every season song by song so you do not have to", product manager for Google to play music, Elias Romano, he wrote in a blog on Tuesday. "If you are looking for something specific, you can browse our stations curated by genre, mood, decade or activity, or you can search for your favorite artist, album or song to instantly create a station of similar music.
The stations are also available to subscribers of service payments, which also receive on-demand access to the music catalog of Google (and yes, that includes Taylor Swift).
The new layer free Google Play Music is now available in the US on the web and will be despleguada to iOS and Android applications later this week.
