music off of my tablet... :)

The Play Music app is sucking music off of my N7 and storing it in the cloud with my other music. I can accept it happening on my PC because I set that up, but there is music and sound files on my tablet that I don't want in the cloud, or even referenced in the cloud, and Google is doing that without my permission. Does anyone know how to sop this from happening?

Try another app and kill the play music processes

I have 10,000 tracks stored for free in Play Music, and with my unlimited data plan it does add a level of convenience.

I would prefer a more realistic solution...

I didn't think Google Music could do that.......I thought it only stored them locally, unless you uploaded them from PC only........hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Tis true.

To my knowledge, unless things have changed, you can only upload files from the computer. However, if you have files not in your online library on the device, Google Music will find them and add them to your list of audio. However, it does not upload them, and will be amongst the local and pinned for offline mode files once you cut off internet to the device.

Okay, this is me with the red face of embarrassment. I thought it was uploading the files, but on further inspection it was only showing the local files in my initial list that you get on startup. I would prefer that it not do that but it's not as bad as uploading the files...

Sorry for creating the fire drill...
