Where does Google Music store the "offline tracks"? [closed]

I have about 8 gigs of music stored within Google Music, and I recently got sick of streaming (and risking data charges), so I painstakingly allowed it to be stored offline. So my fresh 16 gig SD card now only had 8 gigs left. Then, I flashed a new rom, thinking that all my music would still be there cached (or however it works), but I was wrong. When I click "show offline tracks only" within the Google Music app, it shows nothing, yet my SD card still only has 8 gigs of space left.

So, my question is, where are these offline tracks stored on my SD card so I can go in and delete them, to free up space so I can back them all up again?

Thanks!

seems to be at /sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.music/files/music now, at least on my droid.O
same for me: files/music instead of cache/music, but thanks for pointing in the right direction!Swane
Or /data/data/com.google.android.music/files/music/. But you need a rooted phone to access them there.Trypsin
is there any other location? The latest one, is no where to be found in any of those locations.Breath
No files in that location anymore...Veraveracious
This seems to be outdated.Theone
I've found the files at /data/data/com.google.android.music/files/music. Although they are labeled as .mp3's, they are not playable as such; probably to prevent copying them off to play.Galatia
