also you should only need to worry about google music if they ever got merged into the youtube PA; duplication of effort is A-OK across PAs

rack up another tombstone

quote:

In July 2014, Songza was acquired by Google (#ConsciousCoupling), and in them we found a company who shares our excitement for IRL soundtracking. Over the past year and a half, we’ve worked hard to bring all of the features that you love from Songza to Google Play Music, including the Concierge and our massive library of hand-curated playlists — from Walking On Sunshine to Hillbilly Bodybuilding, no moment shall go un-soundtracked.

It’s now time for us to focus on building a single, cohesive product. So as of January 31, 2016, Songza will become Google Play Music, and you will no longer be able to access Songza.com or the Songza mobile apps. HEY! There’s no crying! Are you crying? There’s no crying in music streaming! Moving to Google Play Music is free, and your favorite playlists can come with you! Pinky swear. Soon, when you visit Songza, you’ll be greeted with a prompt that will let you bring all of your Songza listening history and favorite playlists over to Google Play Music — so please make sure to do that! Using all of Songza’s features in Google Play Music is 100% free and doesn’t require a credit card, you just need to accept our new Terms of Service and Google’s Privacy Policy (if you haven’t already).

where is that "our incredible journey" blog again? the one that had all the announcements of "we've been acquired but nothing we'll change" followed closely by "the service will be shut down and rolled into acquiring company's product"

how many people who used songza have also seen "a league of their own"? or at least know about the "no crying" thing?

idk im in my 30s and i had to be reminded of it. prefect has a point there. pretty sure the customers of something called songza are at most 25 years old and probably havent seen the movie so the reference will be even more lost on them & thus not very polite

does google play music have a way to make a playlist of music I have never listened to, but is similar to other music I have listened to?

my biggest gripe is with the map making moderation. the smallest and most inconsequential edits get the most severe and petty scrutiny

quote:

The specs are also huge: 3GB of RAM paired to the latest Nvidia X1 64-bit processor. That all seems good, but something is amiss with performance on the Pixel C. There are inexcusable pauses and latency, especially when launching and switching apps. My hunch is that the Android team still hasn’t figured out how to take real advantage of all that power out of Nvidia’s silicon (the Nexus 9 seemed to similarly underutilize its processor). Whatever the reason, it’s a miss. A bad one.

android providing a lovely user experience even when given hardware that is more than powerful enough. nobody could have seen that coming.

Google should give up on tablets imo, their pathetic office hierarchy means nothing gets done or fixed.

lmao, I can't believe they did it again. this is a fundamental design flaw of the transmeta nvidia 64-bit arm chips and their dynamic instruction set translation. they must have gotten a hell of a deal on these pieces of poo poo
