Cleaner link: https://open.spotify.com/album/4zkEptQvq1lVG0BSPLuLFf I don't imagine it's likely to have the effect of confusing anyone's smart speaker, is it?

Siri would be way simpler to cheat. Siri on iPad often times reacts to Audible books...

My fucking Google Home can't even figure out how to play the auto playlist "My Likes" on YouTube Music.

Previously, I could say "Play my Thumbs Up" and it could do so on Google Play Music.

It keeps playing a song called "My Likes". Jesus fucking Christ, Google. If I say "Play my My Likes playlist" something random happens.

Do these guys even use their product? I'm just glad this album didn't come out before the forced migration.

EDIT: Okay, I went to verify it and this has to be the best instance of massive PEBKAC plus some UX donkeyness. The auto playlist is called "Your Likes" so I can get the Assistant to do the right thing by telling her to play her likes (Ok Google, play your likes). What the fuck man. But fine. At least I got it working.

I've suffered with this for months and now I find a solution in the few minutes after posting this.

YouTube music has been a really mixed bag. Disappointed by the forced transition.

I have 5 Google Home devices (one Max, two regulars, and two minis) and I'm dreading the day Google Home shows up on killedbygoogle.com.

Can't say expected much , but he sounds like he uploaded a bunch of basic loops. If your gonna do this at least bring real content

I don't know, I thought Vulfpeck's "Sleepify" hit the nail on the head without bringing any "real" content.

It really has. Google Play Music integrated so well with everything. YT Music has the massive advantage that there is so much more music on YouTube but damn, the integration is shambolic.
