Google Alphabet is bad at naming things. When YouTube Music Key launched November last year, I thought it was an unnecessarily long name compared to services like Spotify, Rdio or Apple Music. That looks like it could be changing soon. Android Police spotted a the most recent update to the Android app that uses a curious ‘YouTube Red’ branding instead of the aforementioned YouTube Music Key. The branding only seems to show up as a notification blurb when you leave a video playing in the background as you switch to another app, or as a pop-up when you try to re-open YouTube…
