I doubt that’d ever become standard for them. Parts of the code for these discontinued products often get cannibalized by other Google products.

In my opinion, the world would be a better place if Google published the source code for each project they introduced, popularised, and discontinued.
Here’s a list of the Google Graveyard:

Geez I miss play music 😢

I actually discovered some interesting things in google play music back in the day. The play random music button actually had a few golden moments too.
Spotify just… Feeds me what I’m already listening too. The discover weekly suggestions are usually useless for me.
YouTube music is just worse than GPM too.

This was back in the day but I remember Pandora being good at discovery. There’s cracked apks you can get so you don’t get ads.

Honestly, they made some sort of deal and then got access to major labels some years ago and lost a lot of its magic.
I did find some great stuff with Pandora back in the day though.

In like every way, they really missed what was good about GPM.
And the way they constantly jam YouTube Music down your throat, demonstrates mistakes were made.
