Tech Alert: Google Play adds ‘Music’

Reading time: < 1 minute...

I’m not quite sure exactly when this happened, but today I noticed that my Google Play app now lists ‘music’ as one of its many options (in addition to Apps, Books and Movies).

A closer inspection reveals that together with the free player app (available as a separate download), I can now search for, play samples and of course, buy music, and then play MP3s on my Android phone. It looks like that any purchased music is held in the cloud (so no worries about phone storage issues – but the the device will obviously need an internet connection), whilst the app also picks up all the stored music on the phone as well.

I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!

I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
