Which Airtel users get the benefit?
Airtel Fiber, Air Fiber, Mobile users (prepaid /postpaid) ?
Probably whoever pays high bills.
Postpaid will get everything (family plans most likely) then they will bring it to the higher end Fiber plans
They are also shutting down their Wynk music app.

We’ll finally end up with only 4 players. Jio, Apple, Amazon & Spotify . 3 of them are foreign and Jio is .. well Jio.
I’m just waiting for jio to buy spotify..and we’ll have 3 players finally.
I think 4 is good enough and it matches with our telecom operator situation well.
Jio - Jio : Freeeeeee.. but not really
Airtel - Spotify : Reasonably good service but costly
Vi - Apple Music : Merger of two Good services. Has loyal fans that stick with the brand(s) sometimes just to avoid the above.
BSNL - Amazon Music : Most people forget they exist and nobody’s primary service.
Whaaaat… I didn’t know vi still exists.
But basically I feel like we have only 2 that can work well…jio or airtel.
Y’all missed the best music streaming service currently, yt music. In the past year or so it’s gotten better than spotify, at least for me.
Real
It’s like WhatsApp calling compared to networks… Works for some people and can’t depend on it for real use..
I don’t consider anything from Google apart from Gmail/Search/Youtube(vidoes) as a permanent product at all. They are incredibly fickle and have zero guarantee of anything lasting more than few years.
Youtube music is literally youtube videos without the video playback
and then there is a stupid feature to enable video playback in youtube music.
That’s only for YT premium. The free plan has it disabled.
this is live now
Live for whom ? Postpaid mobile users ? This is only via the Xstream app ?
yes
only for platinum users
dont know why but till last year my broadband ac was considered platinum now I am in gold
