Google Waves Goodbye to Google Play Movies & TV, No Longer Available on Android TV

Google is saying goodbye to its Google Play Movies & TV app as part of a strategic shift to combine its entertainment offerings. The tech company is planning to gradually phase out this app, transitioning Android and iOS users to the Google TV app while also removing the app from platforms such as Roku and many smart TVs.

While Google Play Movies & TV is scheduled to bid its ultimate farewell in January, Google has laid out a roadmap for users to smoothly continue their entertainment journey, ensuring uninterrupted access to their downloaded shows and movies from the app.

What Does Google’s Help Page Say?

As per information on Google’s Android TV Help support page, individuals using a TV or streaming device run by Android TV will notice that starting from January 17, the Shop tab within the YouTube app will become their new destination for buying and renting movies and TV shows. This adjustment further aims to facilitate a smooth transition for users who are familiar with the Google Play Movies & TV interface on Android TV.

Similarly, cable boxes and set-top boxes utilizing Android TV will shift their movie and TV show-watching and renting services to the YouTube app, replacing the functions previously handled by the Google Play Movies & TV app. Similarly, web users will find their entertainment hub transitioning to YouTube as well.

“As a result of these updates, Google Play Movies & TV will no longer be available on Android TV devices or the Google Play website. However, all your previously purchased titles (including ongoing rentals) will remain accessible on Android TV devices, Google TV devices, the Google TV mobile app (for Android and iOS), and YouTube,” as stated on the support page.

Already Begun Redirection

Meanwhile, as reported by 9to5 Google, the company has already initiated the redirection of users to the Shop tab within the YouTube app, ensuring a smooth continuation of their entertainment journey. This move aligns with Google’s dedication to preserving user access to their bought content, ensuring a seamless transition despite platform alterations.

Watcher fans sure are entitled and a little insane, ngl. "No one is going to sign up for your service! We're all poor! You've made the worst decision, and you'll be back in no time!" Saying this directly to the creators really reminds you of how low the respect for people you don't personally know has gone. I miss the forth wall between creator and audience.

I get and fully understand not having the money to support them, but... Watcher does have fans with money. A lot of them actually. They have merch sales. Their live tour sells out most venues. They have thousands of supporters on Patreon, where the cheapest tier is $5. They're able to gauge the rough finances of their staunchest supporters; that's how they landed on the subscription price. Yes, this move will reduce their viewership in sheer numbers, but to say all of their fans are broke and none will follow/support is factually incorrect.

It may not be a decision everyone agrees with, but severing the limitations of advertisers and youtube in favor of artistic freedom is a good thing. Yes, even if it comes with a loss of revenue. They understand that risk.

Also, I'm begging people to stop treating this like "another Netflix" or something and instead look at it as, "I am supporting a creator I like, similar to Patreon." They literally said in the video that they don't care if you share accounts. Get five friends, and you'll pay $1/mo.

I hate feeling compelled to rant in favor of their decision because I have my own reservations about whether it's the best move. However, I know it's not a choice they made lightly, and I like to think they understand that they'll need to branch out like crazy to entice subscribers.

#Fair-weather fans #I speak as someone currently undecided if I'll sign up for their service or not #I have my own budget to consider #But the waves of people poor-mouthing AT Watcher directly is ridiculous and embarrassing #“They're underestimating how many of us are poor” #Okay but that's not how business works #They just need enough people who aren't poor #and they may well have those numbers #Do you think they would have made such a drastic decision if they didn't??? #If they want to focus on fans who support them even if their hard work isn't free that's their choice #People are trying to be so anti-capitalism on this they've actually circled back around to saying #“Just take ad revenue from these companies so they can profit off your content and I don't have to pay out of MY pocket.” #That's... that's not the anti-capitalism stance you think it is #Maybe (and this is crazy) asking for a few dollars directly instead of through the vehicle of youtube‚ google‚ and all its advertisers is #... not spitting on the fans? #Please stop trying to guilt small content creators to their face while simping for large corporations #Watcher

gale’s willingness to blow himself up makes so much sense when you think about how being a chosen of mystra grants you immortality. a little over a year before the events of the game, gale had expected to live forever. in a year, he’s had to come to terms with the fact that after being cast aside he lives a mortal human life again. he will die. his years are limited.

no wonder he wasn’t horribly shaken-up by the suggestion he’d have to die ‘soon’—and no wonder he was willing to accept it. he’d already mourned the rest of the life he thought he’d be living hundreds of years in the future.

Tucker lives in my head often so I wanted to give him some attention with this piece! And I maybe, just a little bit, went overboard (sorry colorists), but I give the gift of letting them decide what to put on Tucker's screen (for @green-with-envy-phandom-event )

#danny phantom #tucker foley #danny phantom fanart #i kept going back and forth on hard lineart for Tucker's waves (the hairstyle) and im still not feeling confident #i figured the mix of old and new tech would be a fun homage to the “ghosts and tech dont mix well but old tech works a little better” idea #if you dont recognize floopy disks or the mice with balls in them.... youre probably too young (go google search) #the logitech mice with the ball embedded in the side?!?!? i still dont know what the purpose really was but they were fun to spiiiiiiin #ANYWAY the waves were important to me bc i think the berets stupid and we know tucker is protective of it so what better way than to #re-envision as a do rag protecting his carefully curated hairstyle?!? idk i just think it fits Tucker's personality #dp jbee #just noticed on my final pass that i mispelled floppy... whoops i made the drafts at like 2am shhh

I can't do much productively during the heat wave/health issue flare up/etc. like work on my games or anything where I have to sit at the computer/type for long periods of time, BUT.. I did passively sculpt a few tiny foods lol. I wanted to do one of my bigger usual sculptures, but those take so much more time and concentration, I thought something small just to keep my hands busy would be better.. close up photos look kind of weird and blurry from my camera settings or something, but overall they came out okay, especially in person.. Nearly the only reason I ever wanted to buy dolls as a kid was to get my hands on the miniature foods and plates and stuff that came with them, I've always just been obsessed with small versions of things like that, so.. why not make some! lol

#sculpture #ooops.. i could have posted this on the art blog but I forgor and do not feel like reuploading everything #into a new drafted post on a whole other blog.. not in this heat.. i have no patience lol #items are: tomato. asparagus. a four leaf clover (not food lol). some sort of folded bun or dumpling with meat inside (not based on #anything specific. I just wanted to fold a flat sheet of clay into a shape). pomegranate. cheese wheel. lemon slice. some sort of mushroom. #fish (not a real one. just made up. if it looks like any specific fish that'd be interesting). and fig. #I haven't been able to get many avocaodo pits to carve again. so sculpting. then is good for a tiny craft #WISH I COULD DO COSTUMES OR SOMETHING.. i have some pikced out. bundles of clothes laying on the floor of the closet #but GODS even before the heat wave it's just been so warm.. I know.. it's the summer. of course it's warm #but WHYYYyy............. what if it just snowed all year around and was awesome and beautiful and i was so cold and could wear 25 blankets #at all times.. what about THAT hmm?? .. the ideal.. #anyway.. my favorite is the pomegranate and the mushroom maybe #The fig is hard because in the pictures of figs I googled a lot of them have that sort of white powdery type of thing on the outside #that grapes and plums and stuff have sometimes and it's hard to convey that weird like.. sheen.. plus the purple with almost powdery blue #and little lighter specks plus streaks of light green and a little orangey on some of them. #It's okay in person I think but this doesnt show up as much in pictures. The cheese also looks betterin person than images. you can't tell #the slight shine in the pictures lol. but the pomegranates look cool and also photograph decent.. hmm #I should have made toast with an egg on it or something. that would be a nice addition #OH ALSO ASPARAGUS MY BELOVED.. though they look a little wonky. the cuticle pusher tool that I sculpt with in leiu of any actual sculpting #tools has a kind of triangle edge that was suite for the little leaf details of the asparagus so that was cool. its like..ALMOST right lol

No idea who the photographers are, but I do know that the second photo had to be taken around the "Tinderbox" (1986) album era, since Siouxsie is wearing the same dress from the "Candyman" music video which was released before the album was.

Edit: The story behind how Siouxsie misstepped off the London Hammersmith Odeon stage and injured her knee on October 24th, 1985 which meant she required a full leg cast, and the need of her cool skull cane as the tour went on uninterrupted. Sadly the video is unavailable for this story:

Story is mentioned here also:

If Dirk did make Hal a robot body he’d make him left handed out of spite send post

#I have to make a video for this bc I was cackling over the thought all morning #Strider LaLonde Sibling Household and Rox just walks into Dirk’s room like ‘oh darling brother of mine have you seen myyyyyyyyywhat the fuck #they both look up to wave at her but it’s opposite hands #hal realizes and throws the biggest fit #i have google in my head but you nerfed me by making me left handed #beautiful #dirk strider #lil hal

I like to imagine that Ena kept talking to Moony about some new wave bands from the 80s back in their world and Moony was annoyed from hearing it all the time, only Hayasaka, Natsuki and Jesse can hear her rambling and actually enjoy it (Moony not a real one frfr)

they're all going to a new wave concert together after Ena recruited them all into being hardcore fans (Moony can only wish to be set free)

#I apologise if any of these bands are wrong #I literally just google searched 80s new wave bands for the gag #and I thought Moony nirvana fan would be funny idk #get it a rock that listens to rock please laugh in the next 5-7 business days

@abeterger Because I’m embarrassed to slide into people’s DMs right away even when they explicitly ask me, have a list that’s a fraction of what floats around in my brain:

- The TToE father is an Oxford physics professor and The mother is head of library sciences. She has her own academic prowess that she’s forced to abandon when her husband refuses to be a parent.

- The President is actually high key a good person who saw what the environmental “Salvage Alpha through hard work” people were doing and knew they wouldn’t have time for that. The Framers was their only option and a lot of the hate he gets from other characters is them not understanding that.

- I think @issela-santina said it first but I’m almost positive Daniel is ND but it wouldn’t be acknowledged the way it would be today, hence the general reclusive and antisocial behavior

- @age-of-shadows and I just call the country The Source takes place in “Alphan Germany” because it’s Ayreon tradition to completely avoid proper nouns

- Liquid Eternity’s capabilities are WAY too specific for the Chemist to just have it on hand pre-album story. I think it’s more likely it existed as a prototype just for underwater breathing, then he had to finalize it and add all the other stuff people were demanding ON the way to Y, with limited time and resources. Probably why he sounds so sad and mellow all the time

- Daniel and Henry have the same age gap as Tommy Karevik and Paul Manzi, 19 years, and their dad hates Henry way more than he hates Daniel and a lot of it has to do with them being fully grown adults at the time the mom died.

- Speaking of most of these being Transitus related, I made the excuse that most of the singers were American and the comic architecture looked colonial northeast US-ish and used it to just set everything in the US and I literally never looked back. Now all the HCs are so damn entrenched in 19th century US history, it’s completely unavoidable 😭

- The Counselor was a personal psychologist to whatever president came before Russell, but as tensions rose between said president and other activist opposition characters she was friends with, she stepped down and started a private practice as a way to remain neutral between political parties

-The Opposition Leader was The President’s election opponent. The President was sworn into office just three weeks before Day That The World Breaks Down

-Abby, ironically, is the only person of the main cast that doesn’t have some horrible experience with death pre-1884 (on account of being too young to remember her mother dying), so she has very little of an idea of how to properly process her grief, which obviously does not end well.

- I have to go but last one: Dumb Piece of Rock is actually very necessary plot wise because it shows off Daniel’s introversion AND his internal conflict in Act I, but the execution felt very off in the middle of this extremely sad story plot. I think it should have been Abby herself telling him he deserves better than Henry and his father. If nothing else it gives her a LITTLE more story agency.
