Play music or YouTube music? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi! So I recently got Youtube music and merged my library of purchased songs from Play music with YouTube music. However if I now have Youtube music can I I disable Google Play Music safely? Will that affect my purchased music or anything else on the phone? Also if it is safe(is it?) and I go ahead and disable it if I purchase a new song from the Play Store will it automatically go to Youtube Music?

Youtube music doesn't work with Per-song Payments, it's more like spotify with a monthly subscription that let you listen/download every songs you want.
Idk if you'll still be able to buy music from google play after Google play music shut down tho, but yes it's safe to "disable" Google play music after having fully transferred your purchased songs to YT music.

Ok thanks ! I hope Google doesn't kill their store for music it's a really good alternative for when something isn't on Apple Music and iTunes for some reason. Otherwise I use Apple Music.

[Q] S-Voice and Music Control

Hey guys, I posted this in another forum, but never had any responses. I've also searched this site quickly and didn't see anything regarding this.
How well does S-Voice control music? I always play my music through bluetooth in my truck and I think it would be great to be able to change songs through voice commands. I've seen videos showing that S-Voice can start playing music, but none showing that it could actually play a specific song on request, (i.e. play *insert song here*). If S-Voice is not currently capable of doing this, would rooting the phone accomplish this with certain mods? I have never rooted a phone and I am looking forward to taking the dive with the GSIII.
And finally, when using S-Voice to play songs, will it only play through the stock music player, or could you play songs through Google Music?
Thanks guys, I really appreciate your help!
Hi there I assume if you make a third party music the default it would play from there but maybe not as then it wouldn't have the integration, I could test it if you like. And as far as music control goes its very good you can do loads of commands such as:
play
pause
stop
skip
then more advance commands like
play > alex claire too close
play > playlist bike songs
That is awesome... I do hope there is a way to make Google Music the default player as I much prefer streaming my music as opposed to taking up storage space on the phone.
Well I downloaded PlayerPro as I can't get Google music in the U.K (not legal anyway
) and I made it the default music player. Unfortunately even after doing this S-Voice will still open the song in the default Samsung music player.

[Q] Google Play Music All Access Music Downloading Question

Okay, so I purchased a great deal of songs from Google Play All Access and would like to play them on other media players without the need of buying GmusicFS as it is still buggy. Is there anything I can do so that I may enjoy the music I bought and not play them on a low quality player like Google Play Music app? Or am I just TOO hopeful?

Listen to music bought on Play Store with third party music players

Hello everyone, I'm thinking of buying music on the Google Play Store. I know that then I'll be able to listen to it only on the Play Music app but if I download the songs on my PC with Music Manager and then I transfer the downloaded songs from the PC to my phone will I able to listen to my songs (with album cover, artist, genre etc.) with every music player?

Unable to play google music on bubbleupnp

The app keeps barking that it could not find a registered device. How on earth do i register the google music app on my android phone. It is installed and running on my phone. So, i assume it is registered, but bubbleupnp thinks my phone is not a registered device for this app. It was the main reason i paid for this app.
Could anyone offer a tip?

I don't think so unfortunately, you can read that : https://reddit.com/r/YoutubeMusic/comments/hhg308/bubble_upnp_will_it_support_ytm/
But do it anyway, it has already started, it will save your library so you don't lose all of your song

Is there a way to stream pandora, spotify, etc from my android phone to an external renderer (my hifi bluray/sacd player) with bubbleupnp? I don't want to pay for Qobuz or tidal which bubble permits. I am currently using bubble to push music files from my NAS to this bluray/sacd player (dlna). But, i have not figured out a way to stream music from free services like pandora etc from my phone to this player. I use pandora, google play music, etc to find new music.
Any tip you offer is much appreciated.

Well idk which protocol YT music support but you can cast music to other devices like google homes, Chromecast, but that's it. Hope the way you've found will keep working
