We see, you're a Pinoy man of culture 😏 as well as a person who loves anime music and jpop I approved
wait he's Filipino???
@@BrainDeadz he said it himself in this video, plus Bolido is a very Filipino last name.
@@RandomUserX99 yeah, i was shocked too when he said that
I sawww that suisei cover….. good taste
Facts..alot of unlicensed musix and remixes can be found in YT music.i switch between Spotify and YT music and the algorithm is just as good as Spotify on YT music
TH-cam Music has a larger selection since it falls back to user uploaded content, which is great for more obscure music.
Unless if they could avoid all those copyright claims when they upload the unofficial ones.
its true and it comes with youtube premium. But the problem for me is that the recommendation is great it knows what musics you listened to. But goodluck finding new music with it. Also it feels cluttered.
@@ykvs I find new artists and music all the time. I think the key is to use the radio feature and then toggle "Discover" or "Deep Cuts." I do agree that I feel a bit tied into the same handful of songs and artists at times, though.
As for UI/UX: it's subjective, but I find it really easy to navigate through compared to other services.
TH-cam Music represent. However, some popular albums have issing songs.
Shitty app tho
It’s shocking to me that you guys didnt mention how artists are compensated for the music. Apple Music pays almost double the amount that spotify does for each stream. I think it is important to remember that small artists need to make a living off of streaming too and spotify is simply ripping them off.
sincee the 90’s apple has been a pioneer in the digital music space. With itunes, they launched the first legal music downloading platform where artists could own their music and more importantly be fairly compensated for each purchase. Believe me, It is one of apple’s core values to fairly compensate artists and it has been for far longer than all the other streaming platforms
I think it’s because Spotify wasn’t profitable for a long time with them taking 30% of the income and the rest to record labels… all of this was bound to happen, and apples music can afford more because it’s a bigger company with its own devices and stuff
But why are most small artists’ songs on spotify and not on apple music?
I think it’s because usually they have to pay per platform, so uploading to Spotify with a wider and bigger audience would be better for many of them
@@dhruvg.7094 i see, but yeah to me thats a deal breaker because some of the new/indie artists just dont upload their music on apple music or upload only some of it so I changed to spotify
I recently switched to Apple music and somehow it’s better at discoverability for me. Spotify would basically ignore years of data on what kinds of music I mostly listened to; Apple started giving me relevant suggestions almost immediately.
You’re very lucky. Most people say the discoverability is lacking. For me, after months of telling Apple Music what I like and don’t, it still struggles greatly.
Honestly Spotify recommends me song that they are spot on. Messy? maybe but it’s because I listen to a little bit everything.
Anghami is better than both
It's the same for me I've used Spotify for years but it never got hang of my music taste idk if that's just me honestly it was bothering me and i tried apple music for a month and i kept it 😂
@@siddhantsuman2407 have you tried listening to discover weekly
Both are great and offers its unique features, as someone who have tried both (I even exclusively listened to Apple Music in Android and it worked flawlessly). Apple Music is great if you're preferring audio quality and Spotify is great for their algorithm & I think people made more playlists in Spotify more.
Apple music is also the best choice between the two when you actually want to support artists. But i do hate that Apple music doesn't allow many cover songs.
@@perrypereyra6671 installing it is a pain but using it isnt. On windows anyway, on android it works like normal.
@@perrypereyra6671it's really good on android. i continued using it when switching from iPhone to android. pair it with some nice earbuds/headphones that support high ress audio, enabling lossless in the app and it's way better. I currently use my galaxy buds2 pro, Sennheiser momentum 4s and Sony WH-1000XM4's (all support high-res music) and it sounds soooooo nice.
Bingo! Audio quality for sure.
Anghami is better than both
I use both regularly, Spotify on my Windows PC and Apple Music in my car, on my iPhone and Macbook, and I find them both pretty good in their own regards. Spotify definetly has the better radio/automatic playlist function but Apple Music is just less cluttered with stuff which makes finding specific songs and albums easier. But the lack of a proper Windows app makes me jump back to Spotify as soon as I'm on my PC.
this is the same reason why i switched to apple music. I find it easier to discover new songs for me.
New songs meaning not only a recently released songs but also a old song that is new to my ears.
I also used to hate how old itunes look, as someone who used to use Zune/Groove on Windows PC. But I kinda get used to it.
The new Apple Music app is coming though, just waiting for it to be fully released.
@@ArchusKanzaki what new apple music app?
Anghami is better than both
@@ArchusKanzakiis there really an apple music desktop application coming?!! don’t tease me
Been using Spotify since 2014 and switched to Apple Music in 2021. Apps that transfer playlists takes out the fomo and a couple of my friends are also using AM anyway so I'm happy over here. I value the library organization and the UI design, as well as the focus on adding features that users care about like spatial and lossless audio. That vocal removal feature too is very nice when you want to sing along or practice the instrumentals.
Anghami is better than both
@@Melius. Anghami has like half the amount of songs Spotify and AM has
What I want to see from one of these services is group listening with strangers. Spotify had an addon a long time ago where you could create these lobbies for music genres and everyone would vote on songs they want to play and talk about music with each other. It was such a cool feature. I really love music and it was fun to meet other people in these chat rooms to discuss music and what's playing in the room. Can't find it on spotify anymore and haven't been able to find anything similar since.
I had Spotify for years and was pretty happy with the service. Then when I got TH-cam Premium, i jumped over to TH-cam Music (YT Music) since it comes complimentary with watching TH-cam without ads. I probably wouldn't pay extra for YT Music given how good Spotify has become, but it is pretty good and goes toe to toe with the others. Plus, for heavy users of TH-cam, having YT Music feeds the algorithm and improves the recommended videos to the feed
i started listening to some local artists, and their interviews started appearing in TH-cam feed, along with the interviews of other famous artists with similar music…
Have been using Spotify for about 10 years now i think. For me it was the most convenient way to listen to my podcasts and even had most of the smaller artists that other platforms, at least at the time, didn't have. All that being said, I am not loyal to the brand in any way. If something better comes out I'd most likely switch to it, after surviving the dreadful realization of losing 12 extremely poorly arranged playlists that each have around 2-3k+ songs in them. The main issue I have with Spotify, and I assume this is not only Spotifys issue, is the monetary compensations the artists get. All in all; I'll sit on the fence with my legs dangling to whichever way they do at the moment.
Something did come along and is objectively better. Apple Music. I can’t believe that Spotify removed the ability to remove a song from your history. I played a few songs and it fucked my recommendations. So the only option is to bear through and keep skipping and hope it fixes or nothing. So ridiculous
@@PepsiCat321 Is apple music available on android? If so, is it worth it to use it on android over spotify?
@@AntiSam yes it’s on android. The video said so. And yes it’s worth it. App works great.
@@PepsiCat321 Oh it did? Sorry my bad, must've missed that part. Thanks for letting me know, i'll be sure to check it out! : )
Anghami is better than both
As a musician, I use Apple Musics "library sync" all the time 'cause it lets me sync sync all my demos for speaker testing and now I cant live without it
yep, also did the same for multiple headphone tests, having them straight on my phone to test with my earpods AND my tws ears was so handy
I operate with Apple Music and TH-cam Music because it comes with YT Premium anyway and between these two I am covered pretty well. Another thing about Apple Music that fell under the rug in your presentation was the classical music app that really cracked the code in managing classic music as it just doesn't follow the artist-album-track scheme having sometimes multiple orchestras having recorded the same oeuvre of a composer. Certainly a niche for contemporary listeners but nevertheless quite the geat.
are you talking about adagio.
One thing to mention about the sync library feature which is why I choose AM over Spotify, the song DOES NOT need to be in the streaming database to be synced.
For example, some bands release their concert audio on their own website (such as metallica). These songs are unavailable to stream, but with AM snyc library, it uploads those songs to your cloud so you can stream it whenever you want.
Such an underrated feature.
I use both apps. But I will always prefer on Spotify because I use it from 2015 and all the songs I ever heard are there. Also I love that making playlist are so easy and fun to. I get so many recommendations as well which is important to me. As for the rest I think both apps serve the same.
I listen to music on the go through a Fiio headphone amp/DAC, and so for me Apple Music feels like the best value because I can actually take advantage of the Lossless audio, which if you've the kit to do it, makes a big difference to how the music feels.
When I was just using headphones though, all of the services felt kind of the same, and it mainly came down to what they had in their library.
Have you experimented with services like Tidal, Deezer, and Qobuz? I don't use any Apple devices and don't really care to, so Apple music is not high on my priority list. I'm curious if the other high quality streaming services sound good with an actual amp/DAC.
@@ColinCreighton I haven't tried them through a DAC, but I have used Deezer before. My main issue with it was navigation and the library size was a pain. This was a while ago though, so maybe it's better now.
On a pure numbers game Tidal's MQA audio should be the best, but people have complained about the app crashing and generally not being a good experience which turns me off using it because the subscription for the highest quality music is more expensive than the other platforms.
Qobuz is roughly the same quality as Apple's high fidelity, and the only real reason I went with Apple is because Xbox Game Pass had 3 months of it free as one of the perks, so I figured I would try it out.
I don’t know you at all I just saw this TH-cam video that I’m currently watching 😊 I looove your tone, your pitch and the way your voice is ! Love it ! I wish that I could have this charisma
I use TH-cam music and get TH-cam premium included with the subscription. So far Apple and Spotify have not included a similar benefit for my tastes. 🤷🏻
I use Spotify and TH-cam music (premium) on both platforms
Samedt. Such a good deal ❤
I've been wanting to switch to TH-cam Music from Spotify, since i use TH-cam Premium and it's included, but i haven't been able to get used to the TH-cam Music UI. Would be nice to cut one subscription out, but i honestly have a hard time using any other music streaming service that's not Spotify.
@@ChudDin This is one of a few reasons why I can never switch. It's especially a deal breaker with CarPlay, the organization's kinda wack
I used to use Google Play Music and TH-cam Music is just so much clunkier, and often times many of the songs I want to listen to from TH-cam - which should be its biggest draw - are not available for arbitrary reasons.
The ability for you to upload your own music to integrate with the rest of the library much like what Apple Music can do is nice, though.
Overall... Why the hell did Google kill Play Music in favour of TH-cam Music rather than just rebranding Google Play Music? Now they're having to rebuild all of that functionality again.
I use to feel the same way as you about the library organization but when I tried Spotify I missed it than I missed the way Spotify did 😂 so been with them. I also love the story like previews on playlist which leads to quick music discovery when I need new gym songs asap
I really appreciate your videos a lot!! So informative! Keep it up!
Thanks for the playlist, listening to it right now as I work
I’m really used to Spotify but I have been trying Apple Music for 6 months now, and it’s very good too. It’s hard to chose one over the other since the functionality are very similar. I think I’ll probably go back to Spotify, but honestly it’s quite hard to chose.
for me Spotify still wins because I don’t lose my playlist access when I unsubscribe, and that’s very important to me
@@beactivebehappy9894you sure you lose all your songs if you unsubscribe?
it's funny, I used Spotify when I was on an iPhone but switched to Apple Music when I got my Pixel lol. The automatic crossfade that's exclusive to the android app is seriously underrated. I also use the lossless audio streaming with my Sony earbuds and I think it sounds better than Spotify. The UI and design philosophy keeps things simple and organized whereas Spotify is always throwing algorithmically suggested things in your face.
Don’t forget the actual dj mixes and radio shows on Apple Music one of the big reasons why I stick wit it. No one ever mentions it in comparisons
I just discovered you from this video and your editing, commentary is spot on! Keep it up dude ❤
one thing that spotify did to secure my vote was that they recently changed the playlist picker UI in the mobile app. I have almost 400 different playlists, and being able to save a song to multiple playlists at a time is actually a game changer.
You can add a song to multiple playlists at once now? I'm not seeing it
I hate that this forces me to select liked songs as a playlist though. I liked just pushing the heart and it saving to my likes to potentially sort later. Now it's 3 clicks instead of 1. I hate that change so much.
@@joshuaspruett what? you can just click on the + and it will go to your liked playlist, it is basically replacing the heart
@@beactivebehappy9894 thats what they’re saying. Instead of having two separate buttons, you now have to tao the button twice to bring up the menu and then deselect the song from the liked songs playlist. It’s tougher to just add songs to your playlist without liking it now that they combined the buttons
Used Spotify for a long time but recently been having really annoying issues where the remote control feature doesn’t work properly, and Spotify curated playlists will change the song order in the middle of my listening session. Decided to switch to Apple Music and it’s been great. Only problem I’ve had is random track skips while streaming lossless, but lossless downloads play without issues.
I personally like yt music because it's pretty much the same thing and yt premium is included when you get yt music premium or vise versa.
This video has kind of convinced me to give Apple Music a shot if it ever gets a decent app on Windows. Local files on Spotify work, but have been a pain to manage for me. They were much better back when I was just using iTunes and an iPhone, but I've switched to Android. I'm also very happy to see a playlist exporter.
Ironically, I too listened to a lot of foreign music, so I chose Apple Music a while back. I’ve thought about switching, but after seeing the benefits of each and how Apple has better organization, I definitely will stick with Apple, since I use the library organization rather extensively.
You missed out the gave that Dolby atmos audio just makes the songs compatible (almost 50% of my songs I have in my playlist) soo much better. The audio quality is just unbeatable if you have AirPods
Apple Music all the way for me. I can't stand Spotify's cluttered UI and their discovery features have never really worked for me - my music preferences aren't really defined by genre - whereas Apple's "More Like This Artist" feature surfaces much more relevant results for me. That plus the lossless quality, which blows Spotify away on a wired connection (even without a DAC) and even improves the sound quality on good Bluetooth cans (lossless + Bluetooth compression > compressed lossy audio + Bluetooth compression), at no extra charge, puts Apple Music as the clear winner.
I'm also using music service primarily for JPOP and KPOP, and one of the reasons I tried Apple Music and then return to Spotify was that they insist on using English or Romanized names for songs and artist if you're not in Japan. That's just asinine for people who knows how to read Japanese. Plus, in KPOP world Spotify metrics is one of the big things fandoms use to show support, and fans of groups who want to make their bias look good internationally all have Spotify accounts. Almost no one talk about AM rankings.
I used Spotify for many years and had no real issues with it but last year I jumped to Tidal because I realized that, as little issue I had with Spotify, the lack of lossless made it a worse value for me by default. After a year with Tidal (because of some library bugs and music availability vs AM/Spot.), I am now testing out Apple Music since most people in my home have Apple devices anyways and so far so good although with some quirks. I do miss Spotify sometimes but until they deliver a feature they promised for late 2021 they're not getting another dollar from me. AI and playlisting is all great but missing such a crucial part of the experience (the fidelity) makes it a dealbreaker for me personally. Also both Tidal and AM pay more per stream to artists so if you care about that as well that another point to consider.
well cant blame spotify for their rate on paying the artist because remember both tidal and apple music does not supports free tier. If spotify will match their rate, with a lot of free users trust me it will be a mess of a business.
@@ykvs Tidal does have a free tier in some regions. AM definitely does not. Regardless, all I wanted to say is that that is that if that's something you're concerned about Spotify is not the best in that particular area.
As someone who switched from Spotify to Apple Music (partially due to Apple One being kind of a good deal), I gotta say I really enjoy the Library management, having library sync as someone who used to digitally acquire a lot of music but mostly stopped because having my library split was annoying, the UI and search functions, and of course lossless audio as a small audiophile myself. I think you really hit the nail on the head.
For my personal use, the only thing I kind of miss with Spotify is definitely the discovery. I’ve had to find new avenues to discover new music which has mostly been through TH-cam. I don’t really care about using it on a ton of different devices because I don’t play games on consoles and my car supports CarPlay. While the lack of group sessions hurts, it doesn’t come up often enough for me to care enough to switch back.
If I ever switch back to an Android phone, I’d want to see how the experience of Apple Music is on there before I consider switching back to Spotify.
Side note: I haven’t seen your videos come up in my recommended in a while. What’s up with that?
I use Apple Music and Spotify
Spotify is more complicated
what does you being small have to do with music
I tested the one month trial Apple Music offered, coming from a 3 year Spotify Premium Subscription and the only thing I noticed was the better sound quality from Apple Music. Spotify seems to be able to somewhat rectify this by having a better quality when you download music but it's a slight hassle. If Spotify comes up with a HiFi option then the only thing keeping it back would be some missing songs that are available on other platforms.
Great video, huge thanks..... I'm an Android user and have been for as long as I can remember, I have the S23 Ultra as of right now. I switched to trying out Apple a couple months back using both the Bose QC Ultra headphones & the Sony XM5 and Apple sounds significantly better & I also enjoy the look, functionality & just the little things that Apple does so much better for the Android app.......again excellent video & sincere thanks!
Man as a spotify user for 9 years straight, and a huge music NERD, it is my favorite service available. It's the last luxury I would get rid of if I was dead broke. It knows me too well, and has only gotten better with age! I even got 3 months of apple music free and have been trying it, but haven't ended up returning. I love spotify wrapped at the end of the year, it motivates me to listen to even more music to try and pump up those numbers. Also really shows my listening changes every year with my life as a whole. I've discovered so many artists, genres, albums thanks to spotify and continue to do so every day. Also the device control is absolutely ideal; I have like 7 sound systems and I can switch to whichever one I want at any time, and then control the playback from any device nearby. Only complaint is that they randomly update the app/ pc app sometimes and change things that never needed to be changed and really make things worse.
I switched back to spotify after using apple music for 2 years. Not cause it's better. But Apple music suddenly had this bug where thousands of my songs werent available in my region, but weirdly after I deleted and added each song again it would be ok. I wasnt about to do that for more than 3 thousand songs. I tried all the fixes but nothing worked. So after gettign fed up i just switched back to spotify
Thank you so much for mentioning Cider! I just got it and its made my experience with Apple Music on Windows 100x times better!
Great video, but there was an important point left out; Royalties!
As a musician, that’s the main deciding factor of what platform I choose to stream on. Apple Music pays 3 times more per stream compared to Spotify, and Tidal pays out almost twice as much as Apple Music. The reach and discovery on Spotify is leagues better though for sure.
Currently though, Napster pays out the most, which is funny because it was one of the major factors in how we consume music nowadays.
Regardless of what platform you choose, support your artist friends too!
This. Sure if you only listen to big artists like Beyonce it might be doesn’t matter, but if you listen to a lot of alt artists, you might wanna support them, and Apple Music pays them more than Spotify
Yeah me too. I'm also a musician, and Tidal not only pays more, but sound better too.
Thank you for the information.
@@MarcosRobertoDosSantosJF Qobuz Premium/Sublime sounds the best.
I use both Apple Music and Spotify, I use Apple Music for general listening and Spotify for when I’m gaming or I want to be able to control the music playing on another device on my phone. That and I do take advantage of Apples Hi-Res features periodically, especially when I’m trying to recreate certain moments in songs (Undergrad Producer Y1)
Great job on the new vid
One of the things I prefer about Apple Music is that if I don’t feel like listening to anything in particular I can just put my entire library on shuffle
That's literally something even free tier Spotify can do
@@BortaMagahow I wanna know?
I cannot put my entire Spotify songs library on shuffle though? I’m a premium subscriber
@@RicardoBaladronhe’s talking about the „favorite song‘s“ playlist which is for many people in fact the „all songs playlist“ but its of course not the same.
Wow! Had no idea about the Ai DJ option. Going to give it try.
Thank you so much for this
Not for the review but for the website to sync my playlists between Spotify and Apple Music
My friends all use Spotify and sharing songs with them is a hassle since I use Apple Music
So thank you for this
there is also a tune my music
My first youtube recommendation for Denki. Only saw Ken on Austin’s channel
As someone who generally likes to discover my own music and only listens to specific whole albums at a time, the playlist feature has never been enough for me to switch to another app I need to download
I’ve been a Spotify user for years but just got a 6 month free trial for Apple Music with new AirPods, and I can’t decide which one I like better. I can’t tell any difference between the quality because I don’t have any lossless supported Devices, and I’m also not an audiophile lmao. I do like how much cleaner and easier it is to find classical on Apple Music because of the classical app. I think I might just finish this trial and then go back to Spotify
Never knew you're a Filipino man. 😅🇵🇭 What a unique video. 👌🏻
I enjoyed the video and agree with your take aways. This is the first of your videos I have seen and whie it was funny and had gret production values, I subscribed because of the KFP hoodie. Now go to the usual room!
Think Spotify will always be for me unless it shut down 😂 in too deep with them and I love how easy it is to discover new artists
never knew about the DJ function, thanks for that
I’ve been using Spotify for four years, but I just got Apple Music recently because my friend has a family plan. I already had Spotify premium so I’m not planning on switching. I also like that I can make playlists with friends and find new music easily. The only benefits to Apple Music in my opinion is the lossless and spacial audio.
Love your content man
I currently use Apple music and the one thing which i use almost every time (might be niche for majority) is the amount of customising and control over my tracks and next playing i can keep with my created shortcuts (ofc the shortcuts app) is insane and for that only feature i am not moving back to spotify, if you are a advanced user who uses shortcuts believe me apple music is way better then for you compared to any other on apple devices, UI is tbh good after sometimes when you get used to is clean and minimal, the only thing which i miss from spotify is the multi device control, i have windows and alexa (echo dot) while its not a big issue in windows (the only thing is i cant directly continue switch to my windows) but in alexa its get very worse since i cant control anything from my phone everything needs to be done through voice which isnt convienet when skipping through playlist which made my alexa almost to quarter in usage
The playlist is pretty sick. I have about 90% of them on my own playlist, but the 10% were definitely in my style. Adding them now
You know when you know a song, but you can't remember the title until you see it? Happens to me ALL the time and every time I try to do a search or browse an artist page I find it in ~30 seconds or less. Every time I have tried to find a specific song like that on my friends Spotify account, I have either struggled or failed. Apple Music is just so much cleaner and concise with its search, especially with the way it displays artist pages. However, I will say that feature where Spotify lets people all play music together is absolutely amazing and I wish I had that. But I would not trade easy searching over just passing my phone around.
Apple Music Classical is also basically a must have for anyone that listens to classical music regularly. And 3D Audio also is a great feature (if the song supports it lol)
We can make folders in spotify as well to manage our playlists. Pretty cool.
Apple Music mainly for Library Sync and Hi Res Lossless. I’d switch I Spotify added but since they have no interest. I don’t plan on swapping. Users that are not listen to music in 192kHz/24-bit are missing out so much.
My only issue is Apple own device don’t support it out of the box without an external DAC . But if you are into Hi-Fi and spend couple thousand on a pair of speakers than it’s a must have.
Spotify’s going through some tough times right now. They’re going through their “teenager” faze as I’d like to call it. Making some unsettling changes out of the blue.
Now, I’ve always been back and forth between AM and Spotify, but I recently chose Spotify because I listen to more songs that have bass in it; and with the customizable EQ Spotify has, I have a preset that makes the bass better tenfold.
Spotify also is really good on making their interface clean. I like how it has the “Home” page which makes it so that all of your discovered and other things are easily accessible. The “Search” is great too. I like how they added the TikTok view in the three little rectangles; it shows good and fair change but doesn’t shove it in your face like they did before. The “Library” tab is also nice. I like that there are options for list and grid view, and how you can pin playlists. I am a person who likes to “Like” all of the songs and pin the playlist at the top, so that is a really nice feature.
Getting rid of the “Like” button was a wrong move. I get the idea of how you can add it too more playlists as well, but that’s extremely time consuming and a pain in the butt if you ask me. What they can do instead is either make it an option, where you can have a choice and bury it in the setting somewhere where you can change it to the heart button or the plus button.
Or instead when adding a song to you liked playlist instead of it saying “Added to liked songs” it will ask you if you want it added to any playlist. It will still fill the heart green.
It is possible that a solution mentioned previously is not what they were going for. So another proposed idea is to add a designated button on the screen that lets you add it too a playlist.
AM also has some really great features. The lyrics option will always be a favorite, not only to myself but many others. AM had always been really good at capturing every instrument in a song and also really good at relaying the location at which the microphone recorded the instrument playing as well. Of course, it’s Apple after all, so the integration with the software is going to be top notch. Personally, I’m not a fan of how the Im library layout is on AM. I like the fact you can have the albums you add to it on the main page, on the other hand it also seems really lazy. In the near future I see Apple making a all in one music/podcast/classic app. They have all of the apps that go along with each other. If they were to integrate the music app, with podcasts. It would be a great redesign that they are looking for. It could be split into four pages “Home”: where it will have all of your newer things, recently played, or playlists to branch off and find newer songs. “Podcasts”: where it’ll be podcast central. It would have exclusive stars (possibly) and all of your podcast related things would be there. “Classical”: which would feature everything the classical music app has to offer. “Search”: I couldn’t see Apple taking the same route Spotify did and integrating the TikTok style into their app. But the search page would be a master search. Where it searches for anything (every song it has on its app, and podcasts).
I have recently just bought AM again and will be determining where to go until things change. I hope to see Spotify get back with how things were or change what they’re doing now. These were just some ideas I had floating around, I’m open to conversation.
Thanks.
wtf? I didnt know you had a channel! Awsome video!
I primarily use Apple Music because of it's UI and Dolby Atmos. However, I also use Spotify as I was added to a family plan. I think both are good platforms. The majority of people I know use Spotify and it's easy to share playlists with them. Personally, I prefer Apple Music and use it as my main music streaming service.
Nice video! I've always been on the Spotify side of thing but it's only because I've been there for so long. If Apple Music had an import from Spotify feature...well maybe I'd try it?
you should have mentioned Dolby Atmos. It's what got me so hooked on Apple Music today and probably why I'm not switching anytime soon. The only thing I feel Apple Music sucks at is social interaction. I have to confess that I get a lot of pressure from friends to switch because of it, and would be nice if they improved it in the near future.
Bro isn’t dolby Atmos a type of speaker
@@soulstopp not really. It is an audio format/codec. It's capable of placing audio anywhere in a 360º space, and delivers higher quality than regular streaming codecs
you may need special hardware to play it though, but nearly every headphone on the market today is already capable
on my phone I have dolby atmos built in, so spotify is really nice with it
@@amritaddanki5627 that's not how it works haha it only means your phone can play Dolby Atmos media, but Spotify does not have it available (also Dolby Atmos is better if played in dedicated sound systems or with headphones)
Have yet to get my feet wet with Apple Music. Honestly still leaning more towards using iTunes to buy tracks and keep offline copies…though without an iPod equivalent, that’s hard to keep up. Spotify is definitely the easier experience for me, and using it for almost a decade now definitely underscores the importance of its advantages highlighted in this video. Still, good to know that Apple Music has a Cloud Sync feature-never knew about it at all, but a cap of 1000 songs still feels quite limiting. Still, if this finally allows me to use some of my iTunes library on my Android phone, then it’s worth a shot.
It’s also pretty noteworthy that Apple Music has “similar” features to the pros of Spotify. Instead of the AI DJ they have the “Stations” feature which recommends songs it thinks you’ll like based on what you listen to, or you can listen to an artist station that Will recommend songs similar to specific artists.
They also have the “SharePlay” feature which is similar to the Spotify group listening, however i think it requires a FaceTime call.
Overall I’ve been an Apple Music user for a while and my main selling points is the Audio Quality, Artist Pay, and the Library Organization. However, I don’t have much against spotify and have used it time to time
OMG I didn't know you had a channel! Hello from LTT
I recently gave Spotify another try and I went back to Apple Music. I too have songs uploaded in my iTunes library that cannot be found on Spotify. Also, I it's cool that you can control Spotify with one device... but I hate that feature. With Apple Music, I can have music playing in my office via home pod, and play different music when I'm in the gym with my students (I'm a PE teacher) without any interruptions from either device.
I use Spotify and I tried apple music once last month. Apple music UI is a lot better for me because it's cleaner than Spotify. Also, the ability to listen to music in lossless is a nice feature. However, spotify has the podcasts and music that I want to listen that's why I am sticking to spotify. I hope soon they also supports with lossless audio
I use both and I like both of them a lot. Lo key i think just the general UI and creating playlists is better on Spotify, but genuine sound quality and library selection are better on Apple Music
i appreciate and prefer the social and the personalized side of spotify more so that's why I still use it even tho I know apple music is better in some way like the UI and audio quality
I like that you checked your bias at the door.👍
I was using Spotify but gave a try to TH-cam music. And honestly, if I look past of the sometimes idiotic search, weird album art and video based music, it kind of satisfies my needs. Sometimes TH-cam music recomends me better than Spotify... but that may be a coincidence
yeah it might be. Because when i tried youtube music it was great on knowing what i listened to. But when i start to look for a new genre to listen to, gooluck for me as it feels cluttered and feels like it has a repetitive recommendation that only recommend new songs based on artist that you listened to. Even if the genre is completely different it doesnt care at all. It will just recommend it because the artist name is in your history.
Nice one 🔥
I’ve been on Apple Music from the jump! I tried Spotify, and to me it’s more of people wanting to show off or more of a social experience. I’m an audiophile, so I really want lossless audio anyway
I never really used the for you feature from spotify, and I noticed a significant drop in audio quality while listening in my car especially. Apple Music I much more prefer. User friendly UI, better audio quality, lyrics for a lot of songs with the sing feature, and more verbose organization win me over. Spotify while can be free, has obnoxious ads that only advertise itself if you don't have premium, the audio quality is noticeably worse by a huge margin even if you pay for it, and while it offers a variety of cool features, with how the UI is, there are some that are difficult to find.
I used spotify for years, but eventually switched to youtube music after getting a pixel because of the seamless google assistant integration, also more music.
I use both at the moment. Apple Music for when I want to listen to music I am familiar with and Spotify to find something different but still within my niche.
all of my music is on my phone locally through itunes haha. so i can have everything lossless and organize it however i want and have music that just doesn’t exist on streaming services. yeah it takes up a decent amount of storage, but it’s worth it to me.
Spotify also has this "sync library" feature. But it's more obscure :D

I see someone's listening to suichan maintenance song 😂 Kyururun~
That said I used to be Spotify, but because I'm paying TH-cam premium monthly might as well just use it
Great video again ken!
your music taste earned a sub
Came for the Spotify v Apple topic, stayed for the creator
Subbed!
I loved this video. Could you try this with other streaming services?
As someone who used both I keep switching back and fourth. Spotify UI to me is getting crowded?? Is that the right way to say it. Anyway, Apple on the other hand is alright, I switch back to Spotify to just discover music but go back to Apple to just have that nice Losesless audio and their clean UI. Spotify has an advantage because of their desktop app, as someone who games and plays music at the background its very handy to just use my phone and search up songs and then having it play on the background of my desktop.
I would love to know his thoughts on mobile phone antivirus and if they still necessary today
I went through alot Google Music, Pandora, Apple music, and now I’m subbed to Spotify. I do like iscovery and the mixes it does, might play around with the dj since it seems interesting. Would love to hear your thoughts on TH-cam Music someday, is worth it? How does it compare in your opinion?
Man I miss Google Play Music.
I also used both but I prefer Spotify because it is just very user friendly and leaked/unreleased songs are also sometimes available on spotify which are never available on apple music
and then those unreleased songs get deleted by spotify and you either forget about the song or wait until someone else uploads it as a podcast in shitty youtube audio quality lol. both spotify & AM allow importing music from your pc, even though i hear AM's process is easier with cloud sync.
7:28 it really hit you with the fifa 23 music.
I actually switched to Spotify because I was really looking for that discovery and found exactly what I wanted and really revolutionized my music tastes.
Was always a Spotify user until I got a free Apple Music account for 6 months from my ISP. Sound quality wise, Apple was really good (slightly better than Spotify) and the UI was better too. However, I use the apps the most in my car travelling around some areas of the UK that don't have great 4G/5G coverage and I found that quite often Apple Music would stopping play when I had travelled into a 3G area and wouldn't restart again even if I was getting a good 4G or 5G signal. This has never happened to me when using Spotify.
One huge thing about spotify for me is the inbuilt EQ settings for apple devices. I find even with the AirPod Pros 2 that apple music doesnt offer enough bass. Only thing i wish is that spotify offered dolby instead of just stereo. Over all, Apple music is great its just the lack of adjustable EQ settings. Yes i do know you can change EQ in settings for Apple mujsic, but that is only presets and still doesnt produce enough bass as well as keeping the mids and high ends crisp.
Great Video ❤
I have been watching you for YEARS but I've only learned your Pinoy today. ❤
I like the fact that Spotifys search button is at the bottom instead of the top like in Apple Music. It has the better desktop app too.
TH-cam music is slept on… with a vpn you can get premium super cheap and also with YT music you almost never need to worry about not finding a track
Spotify has been my go to always, it can do more than Apple Music in terms of connectivity with other devices, an equalizer that you can customize, and you can transfer downloaded music into the app too. The only problem I have is the missing thumbnails of the music when the file type being transferred isn’t mp3
Apple Music is on android as well
I used to switch between them for a while but now I've been on Spotify for a while now. Just because i like to switch devices a lot and Spotify its just better at supporting more devices
3:14 I bought that pet rock tell me why I bought that Alf alarm clock, because they had it on eBay
