What a broken update. You have to wait for music on your own device to load because YouTube hates us.

        I had Google Music for a long time and loved it! Youtube Music sucks. I went to Spotify and find it to be very good. Maybe even better that Google Music

                    It's stupid that now you have to pay for a subscription from YouTube music in order to listen to your music with your phone screen off.

                      I wish they would have never done this. Google Music I spent 10+ years making my playlists. I am not a fan of YM. 🤷‍♀️

                        Absolutely stupid. Youtube music sucks in comparison to Google Play. I don't give a fu¢k about streaming music. Now I can't even even listen to songs I already purchased, while offline. Has Google ever given any reason why? I get that they can, but intentionally pissing of hundreds of thousands of customers is clearly a stupid strategy.

                          The process of getting your music off (downloading your library) if not migrating to Youtube Music was difficult and I still do not know if I got all my music.

                            I made the switch and the first song I tried to play from my old playlist isn't available on YouTube Music. I'm looking into other services now. It's very disappointing.

                              YouTube music is horrible. My Google home devices are all for sale. $5 each and still not selling.

                                      Here is an article for you. Google still hasn't implemented cast to Sonos or some other third part speakers in Youtube Music yet but it's still available in Play Music. https://support.google.com/youtubemusic/thread/3501367?hl=en
