You may be thinking that Google Music launched months ago, but you’d be wrong. This whole time it’s been another of Google’s famous betas. Well, now it seems a sure thing that the search giant is about to launch the service for real, and music purchases could be part of the deal. An event called “These Go To Eleven” is slated for November 16th.
The Google Music product we currently have is a music locker service that uploads all a user’s tracks to the Google cloud, ans allows access to them from a web browser, or Android phone. The final service is expected top have a “twist” of some sort, but we don’t know what that could be just yet. A sharing system has been rumored.
None of the major music labels have confirmed deals with Google, but sources have indicated that a number of smaller labels are on board. What do you want out of Google Music?

you can for a fee I'm sure. I think it's going to be free up to 20,000 songs and then fees start after that. I really like the Itunes plan but I don't like the costs involved.

You left out the iPhone. I'm using 2 different apps on my iPhone 4$ that seem better than the one I had on my android phone,they run smoothly and intuitively and I can breeze through my 18000 song library quicly. The iphone apps load the library quicker on a slower network (sprint).
Are going to start charging a fee to access my music library or is it going to be free for the first 20,000 songs?

I've been using the beta since this summer, I'm so glad I got it. My old hard drive with all my music on it broke and I didn't have a backup but thankfully it was all on google music. Saved me a lot of trouble. I should probably re-download it though, just for safety.
And I really want to see what they do to improve it from what it is right now. I mean, I love it, but I could see a lot they could do to change it.
