YouTube Music.

Can anyone explain to me how you can search for genres on YouTube Music? It was simple on Google Music but seems to me missing in the YouTube Sonos app.

To be very clear, here are the Search capabilities Google offer over their YTM service. Note: no genres.

I have this exact same issue!  Now that I have to migrate from Google Play to YouTube Music, there is NO option to search by GENRE anymore! What a disaster.

Même problème. Que fait Sonos???

Google did a bad job of standing up the YTM SMAPI service, and genre search is one of those features they didn’t bother implementing. Just another example of a bad job on YTM.
