Google has announced Google Play Music All Access, a subscription-based music service for Android and Chrome on Google Play.
All Access has a wide-ranging catalogue of music using Google Play’s existing setup, but you can stream tracks instantly. It also features ‘expert curated’ genre lists showing iconic genre tracks and allowing you to discover new music.
If you tap on a track to play it you can turn it into a radio station - All Access will pull in a ‘never-ending’ playlist of related tracks and stream them to your device. You can swipe to peek at what track is coming next or access the playlist completely - if there’s anything on there you don’t like you can swipe it away or you can re-oder the playlist as you like.
Google’s ‘Radio without rules’ All Access service also lets you look at a library of all your previously listened to Radio playlists.
All Access will be priced at $9.99 in the US from today with a 30-day free trial. Other countries will follow in the coming weeks and pricing will be subsequently announced. Assuming Google sticks to the exchange rate you can expect a subscription to cost a mere £6.55 per month.
