Even if they manage to get big players like Spotify to develop apps for them, a lot of people - at least on the Android side - have smaller, niche apps for audiobooks and podcasts that would never bother to port their apps to GM services. Heck, even Apple Music and YouTube Music wouldn't bother. I smell an upcoming BOGO deal on their overstocked dealerships, just before they get another bailout check.

They'll probably just form android auto or something and roll their own. So you can still probably use android apps.

I would be surprised if the tablet itself isn't already running Android. It has to run something, and it definitely isn't iOS.
