    Funny thing, back in high school I managed to buy some albums on Google’s Play Store for 0 Monies. I’m talking big names, like Charlie Puth, Major Lazer, Galantis, Anitta, Flo Rida, Jason Derulo, maybe more. All for free, just owned it. Not streaming, per se. And I used to keep coming back, check if any new freebies had dropped. I reckon I once downloaded them in more recent times, but have probably lost them in poor last-minute ‘backup and reinstall’ OS issues. I might have deleted the files from Google, as I grew away from loving Google (as I did back then) to disliking them a tad (privacy reasons, likely), but I rather believe they got rid of something I purchased (albeit for no moneys) some time after discontinuing Google Play Music. These albums, released circa 2015, were the ones I had on repeat back then. Nine Track Mind, Peace Is The Mission : Extended (not to be confused with “Peace Is The Mission (Extended)”, at least on Spotify), Pharmacy, Bang, My House, Everything Is 4, among others. Also got some singles, like Californication and a Linkin Park song (Numb, maybe?), and a Charlie Puth song before the album so I had it repeat on my collection
