Google Play music streaming on WP8?

[Memory Morgan]

Google makes great apps if your objective about it. I love my Lumia 920 way more than my Xperia TL but the Google apps on the Xperia are awesome, especially Google Play (music) which I have all 10,000+ songs loaded onto.

It's a shame MS doesn't put the same dedication into making apps that Google does. It would be awesome if MS made great apps for their phone. And no, Xbox Music is not as good. I love features of it but it really bugs me that I can't control the upload or matching of my personal library like on Google. It only matches some of my music and usually opts for the edited version. Try listening to edited Tupac... frustrating... MS just overlooks too many basic features. Not a hater, I've used all systems and love WP8 the best but come on MS, step up and invest a billion or two in your app developers and your service offerings, time to catch up!

Agreed to all of that. I like tech in general, whether it's Windows, Android or an iPhone. I love my Nokia 1520 but it doesn't have nearly as many apps as the other phones, especially the iPhone. Then when it does get a good app, the developers don't put as much time into updates as they do with other phones.

It'll get there, the Windows just needs to grow in popularity some first. It's a catch-22 because developers don't want to create apps for the Windows phone because they are not used by as many people, but then people don't want Windows phones because there are not as many apps. But they are gaining in popularity, and I think will be given more attention by developers before too long. In the meantime it's kinda sucky.

It took a while for Google to make the Google Play Music app for the iPhone, but they eventually did. More official Google apps are gradually being added to the Windows phone, so, hopefully, the music app will be added before too long as well.

Which Google Apps have been added to Windows Phone so far besides search? I genuinely don't know, I use nothing but Microsoft services on my WP, and Google services on my Androids.
