After I criticised Google for making it difficult for us folks outside of the USA to get into the beta of its new music streaming service I received an invitation to join the Google Music beta.

I had also tried the client software on my phone which didn’t go very far even when I was using a custom Android 2.3 ROM on my Samsung Galaxy S. However, for some reason on the latest MIUI build using Andorid 2.3.4 seemed to have no issues.

So anyway, I am syncing my music collection in iTunes up to Google using the Music Manager software which might take a while but I’ll be interested to see how well it works. Streaming music through the web browser interface works well in Chrome and Firefox but I will see how it fares on devices such as the iPad as well as in corporate environments (ear buds in of course).

My name is Boyd and I’m a Service Management Specialist with a knack for operational data gathering, transformation, analysis and reporting.
In 2012, I obtained my Masters of Science in Information Technology through the University of New South Wales @ The Australia Defence Force Academy (UNSW@ADFA).
I was also part of an online community known as the Panasonic Insider Crew in the capacity of “Insider Guru” for Panasonic Australia where I interacted with other tech enthusiasts and find out more about Panasonic's latest gadgets.
I love technology, gadgets, and the Internet and maintain a keen interest in these areas locally, nationally, and globally. I hope by sharing my views on these topics that people will receive an honest point of view from someone with a genuine interest in these topics.
