Holy shit man, that breaks my heart I'd very recently rediscovered Wynk and all my songs from my college days were on it

Have been listening to that playlist over and over Ofc, I can shift songs to YT Music, but I think all of us form attachments to products we love

Wynk music is closing down :(

I read this on Grapevine, but buzzed it off thinking it might be just a rumour.

Thanks for the awesome memories. I'm off to replicate my playlist on Amazon Music for now.
