It's a bug, not a feature, therefore Google will never fix it.

it's not airplay because it's not encapsulated over a network protocol. everything else about it is airplay, but it's not that also, we did this to future proof our devices, because god help us if we'll ever work with usb if

we built a rtos and streaming protocol that lives entirely in the driver layer rather than finding a way to implement an existing standard

I wonder how many people are using YouTube Music compared to Play Music. Even Google can't be dumb enough to kill Play Music if they're going to lose a ton if subscribers who haven't switched.

I'm probably just going to switch to Spotify or something anyway. The stations in GPM have never lived up to my expectations and I'm not sure if it's because it's just hard to get it to update the downloads on wifi (I don't want to use data to stream) without having it run at the worst times or because the stations aren't actually updated. The fact that I have been subscribed multiple years and still don't know is a testament to how lovely the UI is. I tried YouTube Music once and then deleted it.

Both GPM and YTM are supposed to do this, it just doesn't work perfectly. Getting a rotating variety of music is exactly what these services are for, whether you stream the music in real-time or download it.
