And according to some rumors, Google could also launch a version for kids (and perhaps charge) to YouTube.


In addition, Google Operating System blog our colleagues (who is not an official Google blog) would have spotted another feature being tested in the online video giant. Called YouTube Radio , it would allow the user to have some sort of online radio that would never stop (in contrast to a playlist), which is based on a song.

In fact, if one believes the alleged capture screen above, the feature will offer every time a piece to the user, based on previous pieces. And as for listening, it will zap or note the proposals. Through these actions, YouTube will then endeavor to offer the good titles.

The difference between YouTube and YouTube Mix Radio is that Mix is ​​a playlist generator while Radio will offer a listen continuously, with titles incremented based on user actions. The alleged YouTube Radio feature is also interesting in that Google is already testing a music streaming service called YouTube Music Key.
