　　"For starters, if you have a new Samsung phone or tablet, you can now upload and stream up to 100,000 of your own songs to Google Play Music for free," Google Play Music Lead Product Manager Elias Roman wrote in a blog post. Google lets everyone else add up to 50,000 songs to Play Music for free.

　　谷歌音乐的产品经理Elias Roman在博客中写道：“对新用户来说，如果你有一个新款三星手机或平板，你就可以免费上传多达100000首自己的歌曲到谷歌音乐。”而其他用户免费播放音乐歌曲数增加至50000首。

　　New Samsung phones and tablets will come with a free three-month trial of Play Music, up from the usual 30-day trial, and access to YouTube Red for commercial-free videos. After that, you’ll have to pay $10 a month if you want to listen without ads and download your music for offline access.

　　新款三星手机和平板将有三个月免费播放音乐的体验，并获得 YouTube Red的商业免费视频。之后，如果想跳过广告听音乐或者离线下载音乐，你就需要每月支付10美元的费用。

　　Google Play Music will also work with Samsung’s new virtual assistant Bixby when it launches later this spring. This means you’ll be able to ask Bixby to play a certain track and it will start streaming the jam right away via Play Music.

　　今春晚些时候，谷歌音乐还将与三星的新虚拟助手Bixby联合发出。这意味着你命令Bixby播放音乐时，它将通过谷歌音乐分流。

　　Google Play Music got a "good" rating in PCMag’s review. We noted² that Google Play Music, "with its music locker³ and YouTube integration⁴, offers more unique features than your typical streaming music service." On the down side, our reviewers found it annoying to set up, and lamented⁵ that it doesn’t offer lyrics⁶ and is missing a few "essential" albums.

　　谷歌音乐在PCMag的评论里得到了“良好”评级。与典型的流媒体音乐相比，谷歌音乐“把音乐盒和YouTube进行整合，提供了更多独特的功能”。而不利的是，我们的审查员发现它设置起来很麻烦，且不提供歌词，甚至连一些 “最基本的”专辑都没有。
