Many users, when they first use the Google Photos app, are surprised to see their gallery or Camera Roll pictures in the app. Because Google Photos is known to save images in the cloud, it’s obvious that people might feel scared that their photos are now saved online.

But the more I use Rdio, the more I miss Spotify. Even when I was using the free plan via Hola Unblocker on the web, I liked it better because of the UI, easier controls, better playlist support, and a great plugin library. Even the Android and iOS apps look pale in comparison to Spotify apps. But one thing Rdio does have going for itself is native Chromecast support. Spotify seems to be working on its own standard for streaming to connected devices, so it looks like Chromecast support isn’t coming anytime soon....
