Holy shit man, that breaks my heart I'd very recently rediscovered Wynk and all my songs from my college days were on it

Have been listening to that playlist over and over Ofc, I can shift songs to YT Music, but I think all of us form attachments to products we love

Still working for me. My subscription is valid till 26 sep on wynk. Let's see. Though apple music is for android also but that will require making apple id. I'm really not sure if android will also have apple music.
