Just wondering out here, cause Im really torn between these two. With Spotify family and Apple One I use both alternately and in both Im missing some parts that the other one have.

  • for Apple Music I mostly lack good new songs suggestion algorithm, because it very often just plays me a song that I would never ever listen to - and that’s based on “continue playing” from current playlist.

  • for Spotify I lack Losseless and Spatialise.

in terms of UI, both are somewhat not great

  • Apple Music is cumbersome and hard to navigate to song that is currently playing.
  • Spotify is just too much noise on the screen for me

What are your thoughts?

    I use Apple One family premier:

    https://www.apple.com/apple-one/

    Having lots of iCloud storage is handy, and I use the other services.

    Also, unless things have changed, Apple pays artists more than Spotify.

      Sure, but when I am only looking to pay for myself and one other person, and music is the only thing I want out of this arrangement, there’s only one best deal right now and that’s Spotify.

      That being said, Apple TV+ is an enticing offer right now with season 2 of Foundation starting this week. But my usual streaming service strategy is to just wait for a show to finish, buy a month subscription, and watch the whole thing over a weekend.
