Nope nothing needs changing just the VPN, have you tried Windscribe? Theirs worked for me last week.

I'll give it a go, thanks

I bought the family sub via turkey, switched off VPN - then a few hours later pinged over an invite to the wife via google family iirc

Ahh, family sub initially. Ta

 

[SixTwoSix]

What am I doing wrong... Used a couple of VPNs for Turkey but only see £? Anything I need to change in Google?

I tried nordvpn and express on their refund trials, neither worked, windscribe eventually did the job for free.

Nordvpn worked for me via Turkey but had to try a couple of different servers

@john_smith simply, my other user was not showing as from Turkey despite the VPN. Refreshed for another server several times and eventually it worked.

Same as @Puzzled

Excellent, got it third go! Thank you for the recommendation

I also had issues with my payment going through India just now. Last month, there was an issue, but it somehow managed to make a payment. This month something had changed as nothing worked.

Anyway, I've now moved to Turkey and it was surprisingly easy. I used Windscribe set to Turkey, refreshed the page and subscribed at the new price. The Family package is slightly more expensive in Turkey vs India, but at less than a £1 difference, it's nothing to worry about!

For me YT music was almost as good as spotify, nothing about Spotify made it worth keeping the sub at their price.

Two problems with YTMusic:

1) You can't select multiple tracks to move them around / remove them, because they don't have a legit Windows app, just a web interface.
2) If you add a track to a playlist, it won't detect if it's a duplicate or not. Tidal and Spotify do this, so I've got a Tidal account for playlist management, and I still use YTMusic because their algorithm is better for playing music I like.

You can select multiple tracks and do a few things including remove, as seen here - granted you can't move them but 99% of my music listening is randomized unless listening to an album, so for me individually, it's not a problem.

2) If you add a track to a playlist, it won't detect if it's a duplicate or not. Tidal and Spotify do this, so I've got a Tidal account for playlist management, and I still use YTMusic because their algorithm is better for playing music I like.

Interesting, just tried to add a song that existed in a playlist and got this...does it on any playlist with the song already in it so no dupes.

This only works for very specific versions of the song, I’ve found. I’ve never been able to trigger a “duplicate” message up till now, and tried yesterday and still got a dupe because the song was deemed to be a different release because the first time it was added it was the single, and the second time it was linked to the album. Exact same song with exact same length though, just that between adding those songs to the playlist, they both appeared at the top of search results at different times.

What are you using for multiple selection? I’ve been using opera’s extension. Is that a chrome one?

This is a good point, also as a lot of the youtube music will pull custom uploads from the main youtube site so there may be variations in length.

That's the windows desktop install - it's probably a variation on a chrome browser though.

Thanks to the person who suggested Playtube for my phone and on my PC Browser, I now have zero adverts.

can you link me to it please? I've tried Google's Chrome extension and https://ytmdesktop.app, and I can't select multiple tracks with either

At work so can't right now, I was literally just playing music on the youtube music site on chrome one day and it had a link at top left to install desktop app.

One thing i hate about YT Music is that you need internet connection to listen to the music. Spotify doesn't require that usually.

Nope, you can download and listen offline easy enough as a premium member.

Nothing of note to add but you've selected 3 of my favourite songs there.

Ah ha! Found it! You have to go to the far-right of the song and find the check box, then you can select multiples anywhere on the row. If you don't do that, you can't.

You can select multiple On Spotify, Tidal et al, you can just select multiple songs by clicking anywhere on a song's row in the result list

Just renewed my premium for 29.99 Turkish Lira a month. Works out about £1.29, much better than then £11.99 I was paying! As above used Windscribe and it worked first time. Thanks
