Google Play Music in SA Imminent?

[SuperNev]

Hi everyone

I just noticed something on Google Play Music, there are SA artists. I've had access to Play Music via All Access as it was never blocked in SA, but I haven't been able to buy music unless I circumvent controls (but iTunes is cheaper anyways).

I searched for the typical kwaito, hip hop and gospel artists and groups, and I've found everything that I searched for. Has anyone else noticed the same? Has it been happening for some time?

I'm sure excited, because after Play Books it makes sense for Google to bring Play Music to South Africa

I wish they'd hurry up already!

We still didn't make the list even though it included a number of African countries.
