谷歌决心挑战苹果和亚马逊（亚马逊也开发自己的在线音乐业务） 。 今年初，谷歌推出了Music Beta服务。 该服务仅限于美国市场， 允许消费者将歌曲上传至谷歌服务器的一个数字“保险柜”， 然后就可以在任一台联网的个人电脑或任何使用其安卓操作系统的移动装置上收听这些歌曲。 该服务允许人们在谷歌“云端”免费存储多达2,0000首歌曲， 是更大的“谷歌音乐”服务的组成部分。
Google is determined to challenge apple and Amazon (Amazon also develops its own online music business). Google launched Music Beta service earlier this year. The service, limited to the US market, allows consumers to upload songs to a digital “safe” on a Google server and then listen to them on any net-connected PC or any mobile device using android operating system. The service, which allows people to store up to 2,0000 songs for free in the Google “cloud”, is part of the larger “Google music” service.
