Offering music streaming with personalized genres, playlists and recommendations, as well as music videos with the backing of YouTube&#8217;s huge catalogue. YouTube Music Premium or YouTube Premium members get access to ad-free, background listening and offline playback for music and videos on YouTube Music and YouTube. As Google continued to invest in new features of YouTube Music, Google Play Music was abandoned and eventually closed on 1st December 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now Google Play Music has closed, what steps do you need to take as an artist? None! As Google Play Music and YouTube Music share a library, any music distributed to Google Play Music was also automatically distributed to YouTube Music.
