Google has just released an HTML 5 optimized iOS web app for its Google Music cloud service.
Now you can play your tunes on any iDevice from the browser.
If you visit music.google.com on any iDevice, you’ll be shown the new web app in all of its dark, minimal glory. The app is only for playback, so you can’t upload or browse music catalogs.
Google lets you store 25MB of music on your device in cache. Content is streamed from your uploaded collection. When you initially open the app, you can choose what you want to listen to and then you are taken to the “Now Playing” window.
Google Music is still an invite-only service, and it’s currently being offered for free to beta testers.

Not having google music was one of the reservations about switching from Android to iOS for me…
How about music.google.com? The address you provided in the article is incorrect.
I think you mean music.google.com
i can’t believe this ,I just got a $829.99 iPad2 for only $103.37 and my mom got a $1499.99 HDTV for only $251.92, they are both coming with USPS tomorrow. I would be an idiot to ever pay full retail prices at places like Walmart or Bestbuy. I sold a 37″ HDTV to my boss for $600 that I only paid $78.24 for. I use http://xub.me/ab

There’s nothing “sexy” about the bland-looking app pictured above.
you need to fix the link. it’s music.google.com not google.music.com
…sexy? I can give you a couple of addresses where you’ll find sexy stuff…
What the hell is sexy about this app?
Check your links… music.google.com
Nothing Google does is sexy. C’mon Alex!
The url is actually http://music.google.com not google.music
