What is BeatPlaylist?
BeatPlaylist is a free desktop music player powered by YouTube. BeatPlaylist uses an embedded web browser to connect to YouTube.
Users can search through YouTube's collection of music and podcasts, create playlists, sync their music between their Google and BeatPlaylist account to access their music on the YouTube Music app on their IOS / Android devices.
How do artists make money?
BeatPlaylist uses an embedded web-browser which connects to YouTube. When a non-premium user plays a video, YouTube may display a video advert, which will be automatically skipped after 5 seconds if a skip option is available.
Artists will receive revenue based on the advertising generated by their video. Artists are paid by Google and BeatPlaylist does not make any advertising revenue from YouTube videos.
Do we plan on expanding the platform to more devices?
We have goals to bring BeatPlaylist to Mobile, TV, and Car.
For now, users can link their Google account to BeatPlaylist, which will sync their playlists with their Google account, giving users the ability to stream music on their mobile devices using the YouTube Music app.
How often are new updates released?
We currently release a minimum of one update per month, which can contain bug fixes, improvements and new features. You can view patch notes here
