YouTube music provides a tailored interface for the service, oriented towards music streaming, allowing users to browse through songs and music videos on YouTube based on genres, playlists, and recommendations.
In their latest issue titled “Don’t Stop Music“, Jason Robinson the Product Manager of YouTube Music announced an introduction of a new YouTube Music app listening experience.
“From introducing personalized mixes for your everyday moods and moments to bringing you the most popular music from every part of the globe, YouTube Music looks to provide its users with the most immersive music experience imaginable. Every new update to YouTube Music begins by listening to people, and we’ve heard you loud and clear: Keep the music playing.” says Jason Robinson.
YouTube will begin rolling out background listening to music listeners in Canada, free of charge, from November 3, 2021. This update will allow people to continue to listen to YouTube Music while using other apps and also when the users’ screen is off. Through this update users can engage with the YouTube Music app through an exciting ad-supported, radio-like experience featuring the artists, songs, and albums they love, along with personalized mixes on shuffle. All of this without the hassle of having to keep the YouTube Music app open on the device.
