YouTube to Launch New Music-Streaming Service




YouTube has long been the world’s most popular music service—and one of the music industry’s biggest headaches.
But the service will be primarily audio-driven, a departure for the company that has always been synonymous with online video. On Tuesday YouTube will relaunch YouTube Music as a music-streaming service much like Spotify or Apple Music.
The new YouTube Music aims to become a one-stop shop. Similar to how Google Maps offers users directions to work in the morning without being asked, the music app will serve up playlists, albums and stations based on time of day and location.
Like Spotify, there will be both a free, ad-supported option and one that comes with a price. A YouTube Music Premium subscription, at $9.99 a month, won’t have ads and will allow offline music listening.

I chose this article because, in my opinion, Google is submerging the market with products of the same kind which can confuse the public.
They already have YoutubeRed a paid application that allows you to watch videos on Youtube without advertising and they also have Google Music without forgetting Google Play.
Now they want to add Youtube Music. They already have three applications that already do the same thing why not combine specific applications to offer a better product that will not be disturbing to the public.

There are already applications like Spotify, Deezer, Tidal and so on
What approach will Youtube use to attract a clientele already accustomed to their musical application?
