Additional to basic "Cloud based" Music Storage, Google will also open up their "Music Marketplace", which will offer millions of songs for users to purchase, much like competitors iTunes, Amazon and Spotify do.
At the launch, Google announced that it has teamed up with the likes of EMI, Vivendi, Universal, Sony and a collection of smaller music labels and will offer songs by artists under those labels, talks between Google and Warner Music are believed to still be going on and Google hope to strike a deal with Warner soon.
The service will kick off with as many as 13 million songs available from the likes of Coldplay, Pearl Jam and The Rolling Stones, certainly big names to have under Google's belt.
Mobile Phone company T-Mobile have said that customers will soon be able to purchase tracks directly from their handset and have the purchases added to their monthly bill.
For $25, Google will also allow musicians to setup their own profiles and upload their own tracks for sale, with the artist retaining 70% of any revenue generated through "Google Music" sales of their music.
Rapper Busta Rhymes will be offering his own single for free download to anyone who signs up to the service, no doubt more artists will follow in his footsteps.
Through the "Circles" feature on Google's Social Network "Google+", users will be able to share tracks amongst friends, allowing artists to receive more exposure.
Sadly the service is only available in the US at the moment, so we were unable to experience here in the UK, but we're sure to be keeping you updated with any big announcements in the "Google Music" world.
