UK Google Music Uploading?

Hi there,
I'm really new to android so please bear with me...
I have been using the Music app on my new nexus as a general music player for my android. I just noticed an mp3 on there that I didn't want so I held my finger on it and hit delete.
The message that came up said that the only version that would be deleted would be the "side-loaded" version, and the automatic upload to google music would remain.
Now from what I gather google music isn't open to the UK anyway, but I don't wanna use it when it's out, and I certainly don't want an auto upload using up data, but I can't see a setting to turn it off.
Is there one? Or do I need to download winamp or something else to use as my native music player to stop it?
Thanks for any help. It's massively appreciated.

As someone outside of the U.S. I noticed that too however, I connected to Google Music (via tunnel bear) but didn't see any tracks uploaded or listed.

maybe its just a standard warning message in the app for when you delete a track?

You're probably right. I don't think they'd have done a UK only version of music just to adjust that message.
Once google music is open in the UK though (which I assume it will be at some point) all my music is going to start uploading, which is pretty annoying.

I'm in Australia and have been using the music app for a few months now. As far as I know, it does not upload music stored on the phone. There is a program that you can download from the google music website which will allow you to upload your music collection or only specific songs from your computer to the cloud. You can then access the uploaded music files from the app on your phone.

Music manager

Is there anyway to manage your music on your galaxy Nexus using your PC? Could you use Windows media player or real player in any fashion?

Use the website, https://play.google.com/music/listen
I believe that they're in the works in making a windows application, not sure when that'll be done.

On another note, have they allowed a way for us to upload music from our phones to Google music yet? I don't have a PC and all my music is stored on my phone.

Nope. There isn't Google Music API either.

Still waiting for a day that Google releases API, MMS, and emoji for Google Voice texting too -.-

Google Music widget & album art

Google music is by far my preferred app to stream my music, but as much as I like it I hate the fact that the widget does not display the album art. I tried Pure Music Widget in hopes to circumvent the problem but all it displays is a picture of a blank cd.
Are there any hacks or alternatives that could fix this? And by alternatives I mean not an entirely new based cloud service but something that ties into Google Music.

Offline Music Importer in the play store (not free despite listed as free) will allow you to use google music tunes in other apps, not very intuitive though. I think I read the paid version of double twist can see offline google music also.

True however for me what's the point of having streaming music if I have to download to my phone. I was looking for something that can stream from my Google account and display the album art in the widget

The widget doesnt show album art because Google didnt design it that way. Plain & simple.

Yes I know that which is why I was asking if there was a hack or an alternative app that ties into Google Music to achieve that function.

Music players compatible with Google play manager

I services to move all my music to Google pay manager so I can stream it and save space. But does anyone know any music players besides Google music that are compatible with this so I can stream music?

Music API isn't opened up for developers yet as far as I know, so until that happens there's no alternative.

As far as I know, bubbleUPNP is the first and only, which can log into google music.

[Q]Google Music App Alternatives?

Since the Google music app doesn't really work on stock LG roms, does anyone know of any alternatives that let me access my music as well as Google Music all access?
I've been googling around and haven't had much luck but I thought o would ask here as well..

It's a one-time paid app but GMusicFS works well for me. Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bubblesoft.android.gmusicfs
You use it in conjunction with Google music, and you can play tracks from it in other audio players. The Dev is on XDA. The link's for the free trial.
All Access works. I've played stuff in Poweramp before. Most others work, as well. The app also has pinning functionality, by album. Overall a good alternative to the official app, and works well for mixing local and streaming playback. You can append whatever you want to mark the Google music tracks, so you know which will need a data connection or not (eg. FLAC files of your favorite music and streaming the more occasional tracks).
You do have to synchronize when your music library updates, and you can't add to the library or search the entire Google music database.
It's not bad, though, if you like All access as much as I do.
