Google had a host of new features to announce for its smart home speaker, Google Home, at this year’s Google IO. From offering proactive notifications, to free phone calls, expanding its music support and offering visual responses to queries, Google is working hard to expand its smart speaker’s functionality. But what was surprising about many of the announcements is how closely they mirror similar ones made by Amazon with its Amazon Echo in the past couple of weeks.
Google Play Music has launched a free, ad-supported version of its streaming service that allows users to browse a massive library of 30 million songs and listen to curated playlists for many occasions. The service is currently available online and as an app for iOS and Android devices. Google has been offering an ad-free subscription version of Google Play Music for some time, allowing listeners to take their music offline and use background features for music videos on YouTube.
Apple Music won't be available for another week but music listeners now have a new free streaming service to consider: Google's Play Music. The company added a free tier to its service on the web and on its iOS and Android apps, Google announced Tuesday. Like other streaming services that offer a free version, Google' new tier for Play Music is ad-supported on the web and its mobile apps. Rather than an on-demand model like Spotify, Google's new free offering will focus on a selection of curated stations, based around genres, moods, activities or specific albums and songs.
Trying to cut the fat from the household budget is nothing new, and one strategy is to 'cut the cord' by getting rid of cable TV. But unless you can get your TV from a roof antenna, you'll have to have cheap, fast internet to stream your programs. According to TechNewsWorld.com, cutting the cable TV cord is a mixed bag for most people. You'll probably just lower your TV bill by streaming, rather than saving a ton of money. On the other hand, you can bounce from free trials to low-cost offerings to find the ideal solution. Most streaming services don't require contracts, so you can explore different options depending on your viewing habits and your family's needs.
