Google has decided to use Youtube branding for anything media related. Youtube Music instead of Google Play Music, Youtube Movies & TV instead of Google Play Movies & TV (which is hanging on for now).
- bboygravity 4y agoOh wow, I just assumed Youtube Music was some kind of subscription to watch official music videos on Youtube (the website) for the past few years. Until I read your comment. wow.
- ask_b123 4y agoI always thought it was simply this: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-9-kyTW8ZkZNDHQJ6FgpwQ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-9-kyTW8ZkZNDHQJ6FgpwQ The thing that you get when you click on Music in the left sidebar of YouTube.
- kennydude 4y agoBut then YouTube itself also sells Movies/TV. Google really needs to sort out it's giant spaghetti mess of products.
- jonny_eh 4y agoIt's also an internal organizational thing. Anything with a YouTube label is managed by the YouTube org within Google. So Google Music -> YouTube Music was not just a rebrand, it was a new codebase managed by a new team (although some engineers likely moved over).
- LegitShady 4y agoreminder that the android youtube music app still doesnt have a usable horizontal rotated mode but ipads version of the app had it years ago. i think youtube layed off even the goldfish in a bowl they had developing the app.
