I am surprised that people know what amazon music is.

Important to note that they don't stay in FLAC after being uploaded.

Also, I'm pretty sure you can't do this anymore.

Menu option is still there for me

It opens a file chooser, so I'm guessing it's just one file at a time now, which is lame.

I was informed by Google music, when they shut that down and forced everyone on Yt music, that all my uploaded data would be erased.

I downloaded it all and sorted it into my personal music on my PC.

May I ask what app you're using there? I don't see that on Yt music on Android.... At least, I can't find it if it's there. Maybe I'm blind.

I'll have to look into this. I appreciate the heads up. There's a few things I'd like to put on my library if I can.

that was on desktop web browser, https://music.youtube.com

Also worth noting is that it's only available to your primary YouTube account. For me that somehow became a different one created when they foisted Google Circle on everyone. So my actual YT account, that I use every day and matches my email address, can't access my saved YT music. I have to change YouTube profiles to listen to it, which I do on occasion.

That's weird, maybe you live in a country where that service isn't available anymore? When they switched from GPM to YTM all my uploaded music was migrated, and I still can upload music, like the person you're replying to. But I think you have to do it from desktop, it's not in the mobile app.
