You?ve seen Amazon?s cloud music service. Now get ready for Google?s music service.
They?re going to look pretty similar.
Google is preparing to show off a new music service at tomorrow?s I/O conference. And like Amazon?s launch earlier this year, the company is doing it without the approval of the major music labels and publishers.
Google Music will roughly mirror what Amazon showed off in March: A service that loads copies of music that users already own into an Internet-based server, which lets them stream the songs over the Web and onto Android phones and tablets. The Wall Street Journal first reported on Google?s plans.

The big drawback?

Without the approval of major media publishers, this might die a painfully slow death. Remember Google's previous video venture? Exactly.
