I liked Google play too. I was not pleased when they moved to YouTube music and made accessing your own music a total pain in the balls.

Plex and plexamp is how I listen to music now.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check it out

Edit: It needed me to sign up with an email address and I saw it had in app purchases that put me off a bit. But when looking for that app I found Musicolet which looks pretty perfect, just a simple ad free music playing app without all the bollocks!

the in app purchases are mainly if you want to buy PlexPass which unlocks additional features. I bought the lifetime pass years ago when it was on sale for $75 so I can't quite remember which features require plex pass. Its primarily for video but the music section with Plexamp on my phone and laptop is a nice little bonus.
