Yahoo! announced their new Play music player Android app yesterday, powered by Instinctiv. Looking for early testers to give feedback on the app. The app is powered by Instinctiv.
Check out the review in Mashable: http://mashable.com/2011/06/16/play-by-yahoo/
It's live in the Android Market here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.yahoo.player
On my phone, it's complete crap. The UI is slow, the songs are not sorted by album (artist only), and the purple hurts my eyes.
I have to agree with the above poster, Poor attempt Yahoo!!
Got this in the email today:
Dear Music Beta user,
We're excited to announce that Music Beta by Google is officially graduating from beta today! Google Music will remain a free service, and you can continue to store up to 20,000 songs in your personal music library. Please see the revised Terms of Service for this product update.
Google Music also comes with a number of new features. We've launched a new music store on Android Market that works seamlessly with Google Music. Shop on the web or your Android device for millions of tracks and hundreds of free songs for your music library. All of your purchases are automatically stored on Google Music for free (and don't count toward your 20,000 song limit). You can even share a free full play of any purchase with your friends on Google+.
For Google Music users with Android phones and tablets running version 2.2+, you will automatically receive an updated version of Android Market with the music store over the next few days. You should also receive a system notification with the Music app update sometime today, but you can always download it immediately.
--
So I checked it out, and they are offering a free single everyday, better than the iTMS! Your Market app should update within the next few days with this new store. In the meantime:

That's awesome news. I've been waiting for this for a while. I wonder if it will ever be as popular as iTunes.
I live in Australia and I can't find Google music App on the market.
Thanks OP, great stuff! Been waiting to try Google Music as i want my collection stored in the cloud and accessable from anywhere.
Perhaps someone could tell me how you initially upload your songs? Presumably you can do it from the PC?
Thanks for the news! That's good stuff. Finally an alternative to you-know-who.

That's how it worked in Beta. You choose which folders to upload and you're good to go. The application on the pc checked those folders for new additions and uploaded those as needed

I don't like how the music app does not let me download cloud music to my internal storage. There is absolutely no option to set the download folder or tell it which SD card to use.
However I will still use it since Zune just stole $10 from me duebto the lack of a cloud component like Amazon and Google. No more Zune and No more iTunes. If you wanna sell to me you better putnit in a music locker where I can download it infinite tines or stream it from anywhere.

Please give a try for the result of our hard work and share your thoughts on what can be improved - that's much appreciated.

Hey, this app is only available in India, Indonesia, and Brazil Play Store.
Aite Folks!
Please post Feedback directly on thread (instead of PM'ing me). Thank You all for suggesting the changes (which I take considerable time to present on this thread).
You could directly write on this thread, instead, so that the active developers can get faster knowledge of the issues and suggestions.
About the correct format of Presentation:
✓ Use the in-app feedback, especially for problem related to music quality or track misinformation.
✓ This Thread is an unofficial accessory to the official in-app Feedback mechanism, which caters to issues which are going to affect the global experience.
✓ Mention Correct App Version from [Gear Settings Icon] > About > App Version
✓ Take Screenshot of the About Screen and attach it.
✓ Take Screenshots/Screen Recordings and post them privately on Imgur or Mediafire (not Affiliate Links) and attach link here.
✓ Add your Resso Username (The first one you had set)
✓ The following feedback tabs are to be used in Feedback Header:
× [BUG]: Reporting a confirmed Bug.
× [FEATURE REQUEST] : Requesting a new feature essential to the app user experience.
× [SUGGESTION] : Requesting a non-essential feature, as an accessory to the present app features.
× [POLL] : Amass community feedback on a topic directly related to the app in the forms of Likes/Thanks/Thumbs Ups.
Following the above guidelines would help developers receive organize issues and tackle problems in correct priority.
Hey there, just wanted to say this app is amazingly well made.
I suppose I'll admit I share the concerns over how you're making money. Something as professional looking as this is has to have been a lot of time to develop and if it's closed source no one else can check to make sure that there's no malicious code stealing ad data or something like that. I also have to ask, what's the source for the music? Like, how do you have access to high quality versions of all these songs??
Questions aside, this app is great, very well done. Will certainly be interested in donating for an app like this to keep you afloat.
I agree with the last message. This app is incredible well-made and can't believe how this has no recognition at all. Everything works great and smooth, let's see how this project goes!

Will be glad if you do your part in spreading the app if you like it.
Okay so this app definitely deserves more recognition.. It is very well made and has a beautiful and smooth UI. Love the animated gif feature and dynamic lyrics.
I have a couple of requests or improvements that will make this app my main music streaming application.
1. I think the search option needs to be refined more. Mostly I have to either type exactly what I want, which means that the search predictions aren't helping me much. Or, I have typed out a popular song or album but whatever shows up immediately is anything but that album/song.
For example, if you search for Kamikaze, and you scroll to the album tab, it isn't immediately shown. Or maybe it's just somewhere deep down in the search results..
However, if you search for Eminem, click the artist and then see his albums, you have a much easier time finding the actual album than using the search option. (If you try my example search in practice, you'll see what I'm talking about)
Maybe the search algorithm doesn't take into account the artists you usually listen to and just shows everything that resembles your search term?
2. The ability to transfer playlists or complete sync with either Deezer or Spotify. I think this will bring a lot of users to your app and I'm pretty sure you're already aware of this. I also think this option deserves priority over the rest. I'm itching to bring forward my Spotify playlists
3. This is not strictly for me, but maybe an option to allow downloads to external sd card? I know a lot of people that use that option.
4. The playlists mostly displayed as recommendations are seemingly by users that aren't actively using the app? Perhaps they used the app in the past but stopped updating the playlists? There's a bunch of top 20 playlists from years ago that are severely outdated. I'm not sure how you would tackle this but I thought it was worth bringing up.
5. Ability to cast music to chromecast.
I think these are the main ones that come to mind for now. Apologies if it seems like I'm ungrateful or complaining, I'm simply reporting my findings. This app is honestly quite lovely and I'm happy that you have decided to release such an app.
Thank you
I gave my feedback when it was lava music..and now again.. this app is amazing.. but the only downside is audio quality.. just bring it above 360 and it will be awesome
---------- Post added at 09:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:35 PM ----------
Isnt the app name was lava music...and then it was removed from play store (just like solo music)..?and now its rebranded as drift music
debmaj2 said:
Welcome to XDA! There's 3 - 4 options to download for most music, 320, 192, 128 and for some very old music 64 kbps.
Scaling above 320kbps is definitely a luxury at this moment with the cost, but who knows what [donations/investments] await us.
Drift is a Fork of Lava Music. Lava Music has ceased to exist as a part of the Secret Music Project.
Solo Music Project is another great music project which has also ceased to exist.

But why are they ceased to exist?
Did thanos snapped them?
So what's the guarantee that drift music wont be stopped and where could we get the new version or drift or (a new name) app

Why this app constantly getting removed from xda labs??
The only cons i faced while using the lava music and now drift (new version) is that it is not optimised well ..the app lags ..drains battery fast.. and many times hangs.m
debmaj2 said:
2) Completely agreed. It's only that we are skeptical how Spotify would react to it. ? Being based from India, where Spotify will be released soon, I'm pretty sure they might scrape our API keys as they discover us, but as you said, what's the harm in trying?

I appreciate your detailed response. Regarding this 2nd point, you can actually go the route of supporting playlist transfer with Deezer. People can then use a website like Spotizr to transfer their playlists to Deezer. I'm currently using Deezer and transferred all my playlists over from Spotify using that site. And I feel that ultimately, you would have to support playlist transfer from both Deezer and Spotify anyway.
I found an area of improvement. If I have selected a song to be added to an already downloaded playlist, the song isn't automatically downloaded. I have to manually download that song. Perhaps this can be a playlist specific option? Like a toggle that automatically downloads the song in that particular playlist whenever the song is added?
BTW I've been using your app as my main music streaming app since yesterday due to it having Indian/Pakistani and English music. I didn't realise this before. Previously, I needed to use multiple apps for these languages but you seem to have a decent collection of music in all three languages. And lyrics too. Honestly, this is so much more convenient than creating playlists in two apps.

First of all, Clear your App Data and you'll be greeted by the favourite artists page, choose Bollywood Artists. This'll be your first step to customise.
If you have registered yourself using Facebook/Google, then go to your profile>Edit Profile>Tags and choose 'Bollywood'.
Finally, listen to Bollywood music! The more you listen, the more the Playlists and For You list personalizes to your Music taste in the Discovery Section.
Hope this helps!
If you were helped
Thank, Spread the Word :fingers-crossed:
