Google Music Beta

" RIP. iTunes Match!," said one comment to a blogpost of Google music launch. That sort of captured the mixed sentiments in the blogosphere over the new service.

Google's coup appears to be in at least two fronts. First, it provides free storage space for upto 20,000 songs. You can bring your own.

In comparison, Apple offers a total of 5 GB storage on iCloud and have to pay $24.95 per year to bring in your own non-songs and match it up with iTunes.

Second, it has a far richer music recommendation system. It has a dedicated staff writing reviews and recommending their own picks.

Well, all India fans (for that matter all non-US fans) need to take break. This service is available only in US for now.
