Google has announced a bump in the storage limit of its Google Play Music service from 20,000 to 50,000 songs. The search engine giant explains that consumers can easily claim the extended storage limit by just signing in to their Google Play Music accounts.

Google doesn't require any user to sign in to any additional services for claiming the free storage limit.

The company has also detailed the steps to store music online, which can be done by signing in to Google Play Music. "Claim your free storage - If you'd like to try our subscription service too, click 'Get Started.' Otherwise, click 'No Thanks' to continue with the free storage," writes Google.

Songs can be stored into Google Play Music via two methods - one requires adding songs via Chrome app and other can be done using Music Manager, which allows uploading music from computer to Google Play.

Unfortunately, users in India will have to still wait as Google is yet to announce the Play Music service rollout.

Google's Andrew Stromme, Play Music's Product Manager, in a blog post on Wednesday titled "Store your music online and listen everywhere" announced the news and said, "We are expanding the music storage limit on Google Play. Now you can store 50,000 songs for free and stream or download them them to your phone, tablet, computer or Chromecast."

To recall, Google launched its Google Music service back in 2012 to rival Apple's $25 a year iTunes Match.

The service is similar to Apple's iTunes Match, which includes online storage for 25,000 songs. Google initially allowed storage for 20,000 songs and enabled users to re-download the songs only at the same quality as they were at previously. Amazon runs a similar matching and uploading service called Cloud Player. It costs $25 a year for 250,000 songs. A free version is limited to 250 songs.
