I was browsing the Google Play store and saw that there were some new music albums that I wanted to check out. I clicked on one of the albums, and then it said that it couldn’t find my music library because it was “inactive.” I had never been inactive on Google Play before! I tried refreshing my account, but that didn’t work either. Then I realized that maybe my music had been deleted by Google because of something that I had done?
The Google Play Music service was discontinued in favor of a new music streaming service called YouTube Music. Because Google owns YouTube, the new app is essentially a rebranded, enhanced, and updated version of Google Play Music.
The following is how to migrate your music library to YouTube Music. You’ll be able to use Google Play Music until December 31st when it will be discontinued. Don’t worry, Google has a simple method for moving your music collection, playlists, and preferences over to YouTube’s music-streaming service.
Select Menu after going to the Play Music web player. After that, select Trash and then Menu. Click Undelete to restore deleted items.
In December 2020, Google formally discontinued using its music-streaming service. Users were told to download, save, or delete their data from Google Play Music by February 24, 2021, after which it will be erased.
Google Play Music, which is still accessible in most countries, no longer functions across the world. Following its legacy streaming service Play’s shutdown in October, Google announced that it has now officially vanished for all users. Users who visit music.google.com or the Android and iOS apps will be taken to a “Google Play Music is no longer accessible”
