This should be illegal, companies should be forced to open-source games (or at least provide the code to people who bought it) if they decide to discontinue it, so people can preserve it on their own.

I bought a bunch of music on Google Play Music, forgot about it. Come back a year later and it’s all deleted because they shut the service down.

It’s still on your YouTube Music account, if you clicked that button.

Should be automatic, but…

Sadly there was a pretty short grace period to do so. It should have indeed been automatic.

You had a limited time window to manually do that. I didn’t get the memo.

I did find that some of my uploaded library got changed to different versions of songs, which I didn’t like.

Spotify did that too. Got to listen to THE definitive worst cover of Hotel California I’ve ever heard. I don’t trust cloud services with my music anymore. Mp3’s forever.
