Title: Songza is shutting down, users will be moved over to Google Play Music Post by: HCK on December 04, 2015, 03:00:14 am Songza is shutting down, users will be moved over to Google Play Music
<article> <section class="page"> <p> Songza has informed its customers that the streaming-music service will close up shop on January 31, 2016 and be folded into Google Play Music. Google purchased Songza last July (http://www.techhive.com/article/2449809/google-buys-songza-to-beef-up-its-music-service.html), and has slowly integrated elements of the service into its own offering.</p><p> Why the sudden move to shutter Songza completely? The music wars are heating up, and Apple’s acquisition of Beats (http://www.techhive.com/article/2190342/apple-officially-acquires-beats-for-3-billion.html) has made Apple Music a worthy contender in the music space. This means Google Music needs to step up its game.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3011425/streaming-services/songza-is-shutting-down-users-will-be-moved-over-to-google-play-music.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article> Source: Songza is shutting down, users will be moved over to Google Play Music (http://www.macworld.com/article/3011425/streaming-services/songza-is-shutting-down-users-will-be-moved-over-to-google-play-music.html#tk.rss_all) |
