How To Play Free Music (With Zero Ads) On Your Google Home/Nest (& Mini) Devices

This video shows four awesome ways of playing free music on your Google Home/Nest devices without being bombarded with ads - this is great if you aren't able (or willing) to pay for a Spotify Premium account. This video explores four of the many methods covered in our Google Mini music/audio guide (at smarthomepoint.com/google-mini-subscription).

PLEASE NOTE: Google Play Music (one of the methods shown here) closed at the end of 2020. This means that 1 of the 4 methods (probably the most useful method) no longer works. Check out my updated video on this at: youtube.com/watch?v=nXD8NEaiWwQ&t=16s&a…

The Google Nest Mini (2nd generation of the 'Mini' range) is shown here, but all four tips work on the Google Mini (1st generation) and the full Google/Nest Home device, too.

This video contains four tips, but unfortunately the first - playing your MP3 library via Google Play Music - will stop working after December 2020 because Google Play Music is shutting down, and its replacement (YouTube Music) doesn't support this anymore, unless you pay for YouTube Music Premium.
