I really liked Spotify, but when they started subsidizing hate speech I left. For the last year, I keep trying different platforms and cannot find anything that works well. I am ok with spending money for no ads. I have very diverse music tastes so want to have different “stations” based on my mood. Any suggestions?

    I hate I phones and most things Apple. Maybe I am being stubborn? Is it worth looking into, even on an android?

      I have used apple music on my android for years it works fine. But nothing compares to spotify reccomendations… If my apple music wasnt free Id be back to spotify in a heartbeat. So easy to find new good music there

      It works pretty well on Android. They have a lot of curated “categories” which are like a mix of Spotify’s curated playlists combined with Pandora radio, which is pretty cool. Also, lossless audio is included at no extra cost, which is great if you have a DAC and nice headphones on your Mac/PC

      I use AppleMusic and love it….but I’m super invested in the Apple ecosystem. It’s part of a monthly subscription bundle that includes Arcade, AppleTV and cloud space so….perfect for me. Can’t see it making much sense for android users.

      It’s actually pretty good , i think it’s the only apple service that has good integration outside of apple devices. It works with android, windows and even has a web app. You can of course try it out for I believe 3 months for free.
