I&#x27;m in the UK at the moment, but have a US region Play Account via a Gmail account (a trick I learned to be able to install OpenTable for US reservations when it kept offering me UK restaurants).<p>The key is to use a VPN to surface from a US IP address, they are limiting install to GeoIP.<p>After you have installed it, you can open the app and choose a different Google Account (a non-US one) to use with the app. But it will always do a GeoIP check on opening the app, so you have to keep using the VPN. This allows you to access your existing Google Music and YouTube accounts even though you just installed under a different account.<p>As for the app, works really well. I like the audio vs video toggle at the top, and that it&#x27;s picked up on the things I&#x27;ve listened to or watched within Google Music. The auto-advance onto the next video feels more intuitive than the Google Music &quot;Start Radio...&quot; button, and the recommendations are good.<p>It&#x27;s also really really nice to have the music play in the background, screen off... and then to make it foreground and at that point it resumes the video, sync&#x27;d perfectly. They do seem to be playing optimised audio tracks from videos, not audio tracks.<p>This is just a better interface for music than Google Play Music which feels too cold and sanitised for something so emotive as music. This stands back a bit, let&#x27;s the music and video step to the front.<p>The only catch. I can&#x27;t pay for it using my UK account. So it looks like I have a couple of weeks to choose whether I want to shift my Google Play Music subscription over to my US Play Account or not. Right now... I&#x27;m thinking not, and to wait. But who knows how long the wait will be.<p>For the curious about bandwidth requirements for HD video over VPN: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;goo.gl&#x2F;photos&#x2F;BG7JeTxe8UNbWMGL9" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;goo.gl&#x2F;photos&#x2F;BG7JeTxe8UNbWMGL9</a>
