But since I am on an Apple device and have bought into the Apple Solution I don't think Google can do much for me here other than be a good comparison. Now I am starting to see that I could for a relatively low cost havea good balance between my music and discovery between my iTunes library and something like Spofity or Google All Access. I have put a lot of effort into myiTunes Library becasue I have a lot of music from the 1960's to current but mostly into the 90's, somewhere around 2000, I stopped buying CD's as a whole and went to iTunes and buy just songs I want.

Somehow I have Android devices doing everything that I want with my iTunes library, and they aren't even Apple devices. It's just right now, my Nexus 7 and less so, but still, my Android phone, are serving my music needs better than Apple is. I do hope Apple fixes these things with iOS 7, because I haven't resolved to, nor do I desire to, abandon my iOS devices. Google Music All Access allows me to combine what I want from iTunes Match (thanks to a third party app called iSyncr) and another subscriptions service like Spotify and Rdio (I've used them both) into one app, and for cheaper than I was paying before. iTunes Match is a failure for me because the only thing I want it to do is keep my library of music playcounts and last played up to date and accessible from anywhere, and it fails to do that.
They only start to charge when you bring into the equation unlimited skipping, in some cases access from a mobile device, and that "all access" type access to the entire library of music on demand.Įven if iTunes Match worked flawless, I would personally will still carry a subscription service because I want to be able to listen anytime to music that I don't own. Pandora, Slacker, Spotify, etc give you radio for free. Spotify, Rdio, Google Music All Access, and the like, are giving you access to their entire library of music to play on demand.

It is just your music plus the streaming radio. ITunes Match will not compete with Spotify, Rdio, and the like in terms of an "All Access" type feature. There are some third party apps in the App Store, however, that work mostly fine for me. Did I mention, it is free? Now, the downside is they haven't released the iOS app yet. I don't believe it includes radio, but the locker itself is free. Google Music, you listen to your music for free. So, iTunes Match, you spend $25 a year and you can listen to any of your music, plus the streaming radio (when it launches).

Google's "equivalent" to iTunes Match is their free Google Music, which allows you to upload 20,000 of your songs to the online locker and then allows you to stream that music anytime anywhere. It is service like Spotify, Rdio, Napster, etc where you pay monthly and can access all of Google's music library and listen to anything any time. All Access is an add-on service to Google's free Google Music. Google's All Access is $9.99 per month ($7.99 if you signed up when it launched).

We'll see, luckily Spotify can be used for discovery for free if necessary.
I'd rather do it with Apple and for $24.99 per year then Spotify and $9.99 per month. Hopefully this next generation will compete handily with Spotify in these regards.
In the end we want to be able to play our iTunes catalog, have the play counts updated and iTunes playlists available on my and my wife's iOS devices and have a good discovery resource as well (iTunes Radio?). I get the sense, not from this post necessarily, but from the recent WWDC Keynote that iOS 7 will up the ante and if they have resolved these problems of dual count and updating counts correctly across all devices will make the product very compelling especially adding in the ad free iTunes Radio. Apple, in comparison is 24.99 PER YEAR so that is a big difference in Apple's favor. I looked at music.google see that it is 9.99 per month not 7.99. Thank you for these entries, it is a lot of good information on a question I also had.
