I live in South Korea.<br>YouTube Music has been in South Korea for a long time, since last year at least.<br> I paid for a YouTube Music subscription (which came with YouTube Red) since December and cancelled it in May. The search engine was fine as it was, the problem is the aut-play playlists suck horribly.<br>I can start with a heavy metal song, and after an hour it always ends up on pop and rap songs....<br>Also, artists often put in small skits and sound effects in their music videos... YouTube Music plays those parts of the songs.<br>It ruins the party when you're playing Avicii - Wake Me Up and in the middle of the song the music cuts and you hear "-Get up, pack your things... -Where are we going?...." Because that's part of Avicii's video...<br><br>SoundCloud has almost all of the same music including some bigger artists (TrapNation YouTube channel takes their music from SoundCloud), no ads, and it's free.<br><br>I'll be excited when Google Music comes to South Korea...<br>But YouTube Music is a waste of money if you like any music other than pop.<br>YouTube Red was OK but since cancelling my subscription, I don't miss it.
