can someone explain what music I'll be able to listen to on this? I have heaps of my own music on Google music, will this work? can I listen to BBC radio stations? thanks

It streams from iPlayer/tune in for radio, music from Google play or Spotify but wants a subscription, ie not from library.
Mine is connected to my Chromecast, also to a tp link smartplug so it turns on my living room lamp/TV/satellite box on voice command.
I've barely scratched the surface with it tbh, only had it a week so not messed around with it too much

It's not very clear is it. I was under the impression that you could listen to your own uploaded music via google play even without a subscription. That works in the US apparently and seemed to work for me - but was unreliable.
Turns out it shouldn't have worked at all without premium. So be aware that after the initial free trial you're locked into paying a subscription if you want to listen to music - even your own.

Just for those on the fence - loads of sites that explain what GH does and how it compares with AE
Can't decide what to do....is this going to be another gadget i play with for a couple of days and then forget about...?
