Spotify vs Google Play Music is the perfect showcase for this. They both get the job done but Spotify is better in so many small ways. Meanwhile, instead of being improved, GPM is in the process of being abandoned for the new shiny thing, Youtube Music.

What degredation have you noticed that makes you think it is being abandoned?

When they shut down the artist portal they said this:

> With the launch of YouTube Music last year, we eventually plan to replace Google Play Music with YouTube Music. In anticipation of this change, we are shutting down the Artist Hub.

Ah I had not seen this. Thank you!

I've been looking for an alternative to Google Play Music. I only use it to sync my albums from my pc to my phone and play them offline in the car. Does Spotify have a feature like that?

Edit: It looks like you have to pay for it and the music has to be in playlists. Not quite what I'd like.

I believe Spotify allows you to upload 10,000 tracks.
