Some time ago, Google announced that Google Play Music will no longer be available. Instead users were urged to move to the YouTube Music app and to transfer their music library there.  Already some users are seeing that the Google Play Music is no longer available both on the app itself and the website. If you don't want to lose the music you purchased through Google Play Music or the music you uploaded to the app, you should download it quickly. This will especially be required if you don't want to transfer to YouTube Music. You also have the option to delete your recommendations history or to just delete your music library if you want to start from scratch.

So if you haven't transferred your music and other files or downloaded and backed them up, now is the time to do so before it is too late.
