Google prepares a service as an alternative to Spotify

Another possible novelty for him Google I/O that arrives on a very busy morning in terms of actuality. Those from Mountain View work on a music service in the cloud in the purest style Spotify o Pandora which could show its first sketches this afternoon during the first day of the event for developers of the search company. The project enlists important players in the music industry such as Sony, Warner y Universal.

We certainly do not know if Google I / O will be very prolific when it comes to hardware products, but in the area of ​​software the event looks really exciting. The last thing we've known has leaked through The Verge and it is a music service for accessing a catalog in the cloud, prepared by those in Mountain View, to tackle a field now dominated by names like Spotify and Pandora.

Currently, the only thing that the search engine company offers in this regard is a music store where you can buy records and songs, which is also linked to the music player. Google Play Music. In this way, we can get hold of a music library and enjoy it on any of our Android devices.

Well, Google is going to enter a new and juicy terrain (in which Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), also wants to establish itself soon), and for this it will have the support of three superpowers of the music industry such as Sony, Warner and Universal who, in turn, control the production of such important artists as Rihanna, Eric Clapton, Jay-Z, Bob Dylan or Alicia Keys.

We will have to wait until this afternoon to learn more details about the matter, however, the New York Times I gave a few moments ago the reply to The Verge confirmed the arrival of this service, and adding that will not have a free modality, at least in principle. We do not know what the rate will be, but it is speculated with about 10 euros a month which is what the subscriptions of the main competitors cost.
