> Google Play Music: I had uploaded thousands of MP3 files there. They killed it. I won't waste my time uploading again.

You can argue whether it's as good as GPM or not, but it's false to imply that your uploaded music disappeared when Google moved to YouTube Music. I made the transition, and all of my music moved without a new upload.

You made the transition, under differing licensing terms. Not always an option.

YouTube Music isn't available in all countries which Google Play Music was available in.

My music was deleted.
