Google Music (& how to get on it) (1 Viewer)

[Theseus Mock]

I signed up to these but have about 30-40 gig of stuff ready to upload. Those are mp3's that I like to call the graveyard since I no longer really use mp3 anymore (unless it's something weird). Spotify has sold me in its streaming instant gratification ways.

So if I sign up to this, I can access all my music via Chrome?

That is pretty awesome.

Yip

any use?

Sometimes a page will load with this tunnelbear thing and sometimes it wont. The music manager installer is having a terrible time trying to connect to the internet - is this all normal?

 

[pete]

you should only need the VPN client to get onto the site once (to download the music manager). after that you don't need it.

I seem to have it now, its trying to upload everything

riddle me this, i cant check it out cos my real computer is 'broken', so i'm using dopey camino browser. anyways, is there an upper limit to music you can put in the cloud, and if so, how many gb's??

also, with 30 years of copper supplies left on earth, (not counting recycling, but africa isnt wired yet) googles hard drive cloud buildings will eventually become viable targets in times of war as the price of semi rare metals rises.

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

this music is all stored on the internet

you can download it again yeah? i cant find that option

 

[ann post]

this particular internet is a google hard drive building in oregon which depends on copper. is there an upper limit to the storage per account??

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

20,000 songs. dunno if it matters what length they are

You don't - Thats the point really.

I want to be able to download them again if I wish. I don't have a fancy phone. The google chrome yoke you linked adds a download button for the song your listening to, im sure something will turn up that does it for albums

 

[ann post]

i'd be the same, i like the idea of the backup but i'd also like to be able to throw my computer in the swilly and load everything onto a new one the next day.

You can't. The download button is for songs you purchased off them only. Same as the site.

EDIT: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/105972 hmmmm perhaps you can, unofficially
