Anyone figure how to get this working outside the USA? I'm currently with Spotify by I'd rather cancel just because I hate their Facebook sign in.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] MidtownHD:
$8 every month? I hate subscriptions, I'm good with my current music collection.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] OmgitzFire:
Same here, Netflix is the exception tho ;)

They should make a subscription that only gives you unlimited radio skips for Spotify, Pandora, Google Music, etc. Of course it ll be cheaper so I would pay for that.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] lnfound:
Recommendations have been awesome thus far. I'm loving seamless integration with my own collection too.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] noodles2224:
Would anyone know if it continues after the trial until you cancel it? I would like to try it, but was wondering if it just cancels itself unless you agree to go on and subscribe or something.. :/ if anyone know what i mean

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] porfymartinez:
Got it. Give it a try for the month and see if its worth switching from Spotify.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] jgalan14:
Love it so far the only they need is an iOS app and ill be set, much better then pandora and it looks like it could be better then spotify I'm loving it so far :)
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] cashyftw:
I switched from Pandora, and love it way more already. If there a song I want to hear, I can go right to it, without hoping it'll play again.

You're lame though rubyman (;

Service is awesome. Snapped this screenshot since I didn't see the number of songs featured anywhere else. 20 million. Found everything I've searched for in a flash so far :) .

Yup it's pretty awesome :cool:

I have a feeling it's gonna be a long old wait for us in the UK. Best get started *begins potential year long stint of twiddling thumbs*
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Audioboxer:
Yup, I signed up through a VPN, I'm not waiting :laugh:
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] jtc42:
I'm thinking of doing that now but I'm worried it'll screw something up when it does launch properly here :/ I did that with both Amazons music locker thing and Google Music and both of them still do some weird stuff because of it.

I mean it seems to come down to whether it's US only because they wanna roll it out slowly, or if it's because they don't actually have the licensing deals for other countries yet.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] can6rxw:
But not CANADA...why! We always have to wait. Google Wallet, Google phone number are two off the top of mt head.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] derekr44:
It doesn't cancel itself, it bills you on the renewal date if you don't cancel it within the 30 day trial. Just tell GNow to remind you to cancel ;)

I'm going to switch to this from Rdio. Slightly cheaper. Downloaded file size is smaller, which saves already precious space on the N4. Streaming quality is great, especially with the download cache enabled. My only complaints are (1) quirky navigation and (2) slow download speed when making files offline. But I assume it's slow because everyone and their dog is currently syncing their libraries with this new release.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Kitch16:
How? I tried 3 different VPNs yet I can't subscribe because my payment options are not supported. Did you do anything different? Which VPN are you using?

EDIT:
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Mjoed:
i don't even get the pop-up to try all access (via 4 different VPN provider...)
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Audioboxer:
You have to add your card details again but with an american address. Just google an address/postcode/phone number of somewhere.

[MENTION=2656067]Mjoed[/MENTION] getusvpn.com is what worked for me.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Mjoed:
Well.. i think the vpn's aren't the problem, it even states

Last sign-in countries

United States, Austria

in my settings... but nothing pops up :(. Did you use some kind of incognito mode (tried the built-in chrome.. even the tor-version of firefox). Maybe it's because i use Two-Factor Authentication with my (austrian) phone number? Or is google somehow aware of the most used VPN IP's and "blocks" them from gaining access to area-restricted stuff? (unlikely via tor i think...)
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] 0rigin:
If this won't become globally available I might hurt someone. :D Ya hear me Google??
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] galaxys:
This is a great music app update! But, it should also be global!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] FTMDan:
I am very interested to see if us UK people get charged the GBP equivalent of $7.99 or £7.99 GBP (This is what a lot of other companies do). I hope it's the latter as then it will mean that I can switch for a slight bit more (I get 50% off Spotify Premium so I only pay £5 per month)
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] 0rigin:
$7.99 is a promo price, regular price is $9.99. I'm sure it will be converted to other currencies correctly - at least that's the business policy at the Play Store and I can't find a reason why would they change that. Google =/= Apple(iTunes) and I hope it'll stay this way.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] jimkaps:
I will take it when it come to greece. It will never get here though.

Check out my app MusicTimeOff to help you

stop the music after a time you like.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] 0rigin:
You should put your self promotions in your signature or open a new thread about it. No hard feelings but it just doesn't fit in random threads. Keep up the good work though.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] TylerDurdenK:
started the trial in the UK, using a Tesco Visa Card. See here http://api.viglink.com/api/click?fo...-developers&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_136873142570810
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] jimkaps:
I just mentioned it . I have it in my signature . Sorry for the wrong post .

Does the app worth its money ?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] 0rigin:
Sorry, I have 'em disabled. :] How do you mean worth the money if it's free? I have no use for it, so I can't really tell if it's good or bad.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] jimkaps:
It is not free . you have to pay 9.99$, only the music player app is free.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] 0rigin:
I was talking about your app and I also should stop spamming with it in this thread. :]
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] GodGift:
I can confirm - In the UK - Use VPN and login to Google Music, Start a free trial and put in your name and your credit card details but use any US address (I used fakenamegenerator.com website) and it works! Remember to cancel it or it actually may work with the card, hard to tell now... :) Enjoy!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] jimkaps:
ok ok , i meant for the google music:silly:. Can someone tell me if it worth the money ???
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] 0rigin:
Of course it should be worth the money(imo). $10 is not that much and for that you legally get all the music Google has, not to mention cool recommendations, playlist support..
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] resynx:
Just realized this with the latest update. We have to make all of our music available offline again, but now we have to click the menu button on each album to and then click 'make available offline'? There's no more 'make available offline' button where we can select each track with ease?

Please let me know if I just have missed a setting :D
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Cor-master:
Got it now, saw the 30 day trial figured wth. So far I like it, just wondering how much data it uses. Gmusic has always been kind of a data whore, hopefully they got that fixed. Figure if I like it, I'm already a slacker pro subscriber for $4 a month, I'll just cancel that and pay an extra $4 for the unlimited pass!

issues with google play all access

hi,

i cant seem to sream any music from the all access , i get an error when i try to even save it to my device

note: music that i uploaded works fine
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] tkess:
$7.99 is worth it. I signed up for my trial and I'm sure I'll continue my subscription for a while. I like the blend of BYOM and licensed music.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Cor-master:
Ok is there a way to create a station like say slacker or Pandora where you can name it and add and ban artists?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] pedxing:
+1. I love the curated stations plus fine tuning on slacker. I use the functionality constantly.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Flippy125:
THIS. Play Music has decided that I like Rebecca Black's music and that it should recommend every top 100 chart artist because of it. At least it gets the section for terrible music correct
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] DirgeExtinction:
I'm loving the new UI and the fact you can change stations on the fly. Listen to one artist > choose station based on that artist > find cool new artist > switch to station based on THAT artist with ease.

Absolute data whore

Checked the use higher quality audio setting. When I had it on the lower setting it just sounded like crap in my car compared to spotify. Anyway, I'm at the gym this morning and I get a text from AT&T saying I hit 65% of my data allowance. I go look at my data usage and whoa!!! I've been only using this app for less than a day. Definitely can't use this service if this cannot be fixed. Liked it when I used it though.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] negroplasty:
What did you think was going to happen when you selected higher quality lol. If I were in your shoes I'd be more pissed at my ISP with that tiny 1GB limit they gave you, to expect to accomplish any media streaming on that allowance sounds like a true headache to me. T-Mo FTW.

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] WARpig5:
Grabbed the free trial and so far I love it. It's so easy to add new music to my existing library. Also has a pretty good selection on black metal and other extreme metal genres so I'm all set
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] 3Shirts:
What's the betting we'll get no introductory price when it launches outside the US. Also I bet in the UK it will be £9.99 instead of the equivalent of £$9.99 (£6.56 at current rate)
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] maui911:
T-Mo doesn't have the best service in my area. I get 4 GB a month, and never came close to going over with Spotify. Really doesn't matter what carrier I'd use, they are going to throttle you significantly if you're using 20-30 GB/month.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] MoosDiagramm:
I just came across an album that is available for purchase in play store but not available for playback with all access. If this wasn't a free trial, I'd be pissed now.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] teh-maz0r:
Had the VPN bit working, payment bit now sorted too!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Jonphinguyen7:
I read that they are still one or two Music labels short of production. Hence the free introductory trial for us beta testers.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] MoosDiagramm:
An older album from the same band, released under the same label works fine. It's probably just some stupid bug.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] X04D:
Doesn't work for me.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] cdstewart:
Try these settings and then update google play music via Google Play
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] X04D:
Tried those, still nothing. Even uninstalled Google Play Music.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] cdstewart:
You know what your account probably needs access to google music first. From a computer, use a proxy and go sign up for it using your regular gmail address, (so it think you are in the states), then try.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] X04D:
That did it. Already have my computer set up to use a proxy so that was simple.

Thanks!

EDIT: Wow, Google sure got something right.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] cdstewart:
Anytime.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] gotzaDroid:
So far, so good with it. My only concern will be when at&t throttles me. I hope it still streams well. Just FYI Netflix and xm streams just fine after being throttled.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] mefistos:
are you guys in Canada or outside? Cause I would like to try it but sadly I am not i US :/
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] dudeabides671:
I had the same issue. I am not sure what compression they use, but in comparison to spotify the sound to data usage is in spotify's favor. I can't afford to use this service at these data usage levels.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Lola009:
Just install this is.gd/googleupdate

Working great here!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Cor-master:
Sigh that sucks. Yeah googles compression sucks on music, it's not data plan friendly at all, never has been. I kept the box checked to use less data on 3G when it first came out back in 2011 and still used up 1.2gb of my 2gb plan in a week of only playing 2 hours a day. Sharp contrast to Pandora that uses like 300mb a month, or slacker that uses more but more like 1.2gb every month, not in a week!

But I got wifi at work now so it's not as big of a deal to me
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] ATMOSF3AR:
Not me
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] luciean138:
Has anyone else had issues with having to manually advance to the next track? For some reason, if I let the app try to do it itself, it just repeats the track in a choppy, high speed version.

Yeah something that Spotify didn't do for me which is great as I wanted to listen to both.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] gotzaDroid:
I can't seem to get any songs to pin to my phone. It'll just hang in the queue endlessly. I'm sure it's a hiccup in a new service, but kind of kills my plan to take off all my current stored music and swap stuff out when needed.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] MasterTB:
I would get it, if Google realized that the US is not the only country in the world.

Hate that, big time.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] zephiK:
Don't blame Google. Blame the music industry. It's difficult to get licensing fees, be glad it was even launched when apple is still in talks with the companies to bring their own music service
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] LauraSakura:
Been using Spotify since it came out in the US. I'm really enjoying Google Music all access though, I'll probably cancel my Spotify sub for now. Google is much better at integrating my local music files and I really love the library aspect (vs Spotify where it's just a list of playlists). For now I get some force closes, and it seems more battery intensive than Spotify but I'm sure it will get better. It's taken Spotify quite a while to get their Android app decent and I would think Google will be quicker at fixing things.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] brolic925t:
Its amazing!!!!!!!!!!! Unlimited everything and streams fast doesn't do much damage on battery either somehow. Well.. On WiFi having tried it on radio
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] xdp:
I like the service so far except a few things:

1) No genre stations like Pandora has. I don't always want a station centered around one song or artist. I'd like a feature that does genre stations with options to customize what decades to include and such.

2) No way to save radio stations for offline listening like Slacker. You can do this for specific songs/artists, etc., but not stations.

3) As has already been mentioned, the data usage is really high. Low quality sounds bad. With high quality I used like 250 MB over just a couple hours! This combined with not being able to save radio stations for offline means I can't really use the radio feature in the car very much.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Cor-master:
Yeah it's almost perfect but the radio stations need to work more like Pandora or slacker, instead they work like last.fm :D

And data has always blown, not surprisingly, they didn't fix that. Too be honest I never complained about having a 2 gig cap on data until I started using Google music. I actually had it set to use less data when I was on mobile connection, but still used 1.2gb of data first week I tried it, only playing it 2 hours a day, and that was on my Samsung Captivate that didn't have hspa+ or lte! Sharp contrast from the 300mb a month Pandora uses.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] luciean138:

I'm liking it a lot. I use the radio feature and like it better than Pandora (more variety it seems), and if/when I find a new artist I can then stream their albums. I've used the free trial of Spotify, and paid for Pandora for a while. I think I'll stick with this one though.

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] lnfound:
For those of you trying this as your first streaming service, I really recommend giving Rdio trial a go. I was really in on all access until I tried Rdio. The radio feature doesn't even compare.

Hopefully it gets better over time but all access seems to play "people like this song" radio whereas Rdio definitely is more along the lines of "this song sounds similar to your song."
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Flash23:
Question, I tried searching on the web but couldn't find any info... I'm on the free trial and I'm adding songs to my playlist.. If I decide to cancel my subscription will the songs I added go away or do I still keep them?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] dah328:
I'm finding the All Access service to be good but the Android app is a disaster. First, it sounds worse on the high bitrate setting than free Pandora when played via Bluetooth on my car stereo. Second, it uses WAY more data. A month of listening to Pandora on my daily ~50 minute commute was around 100M. Google Play Music is over 700M in less than one week of use. Third, it's killing my battery. Fourth, my Bluetooth pairing drops way more than it used to. It seems like their Android app isn't ready for real usage, yet. That's too bad because I do like the features of All Access.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] LauraSakura:
Weird, I'm not having the issues with the app so many others are having. My husband is having the problem where it won't advance to the next song when the screen is off (he is on a GSIII running AOKP). I find the sound quality sounds better to me than on Spotify, it really is wrecking my battery though

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Cor-master:
Want to add that it kills the cpu too. Until today, nothing could make my n4 break a sweat, but I was playing google music on it, over my bluetooth headset, sending some texts, and my phone started to lag. I went and opened the camera to take a picture of something and my phone locked up, went black, and a Google logo was on the screen. Might sound like too much but damn I've multi tasked like crazy with Pandora and slacker on my much slower htc vivid and nexus 7 and they didn't cause any lag, but my quad core 2gb ram smartphone can't handle gmusic steaming!

And fwiw, it destroys my Nexus 7. And honestly, pre update with its dated honeycomb ui, I didn't have any such issues
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] obtained:
I love it but lacks some of my favorite bands. I may switch to something else before I get billed next month.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] dah328:
Now that you mention it, I have been wondering why my phone has been soooo laggy over the past couple days. I forced close Google Play Music and my phone was immediately back to its normal snappy responsiveness. Just another thing to add to the list of things that suck about it.

On my commute this morning, I kept getting "System is unavailable to play the selected stream errors" in Google Play Music. After a couple attempts, I just switched back to Pandora. Back to better-sounding music, lower CPU load, much lower data usage, no Bluetooth pairing problems, and no error messages about failed streams.

It's pretty ironic since I've always been willing to pay money for the Google services that are currently free such as Gmail and Voice that provide real value. Now they come out with a paid service and it sucks.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Cor-master:
The problem google has always had is bringing stuff out before it's ready for prime time. I think I might look into slackers all access pass if things don't improve by the end of my trial. Better app, less data usage, useful radio option, and xbox and roku apps. Which leads me to another point that sucks about music, you can only get an app for android!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Jaimesco12:
Takes for ever to pin music. Also eats up the battery, will stick to Spotify right now.
