**Correction** We mistakenly said Sonos had Chromecast support, it does not.
Here are our full guides for using TH-cam Music & Apple Music if you want to learn more about them:
How to use TH-cam Music: th-cam.com/video/CRJj3D_SAP0/w-d-xo.html
How to use Spotify: th-cam.com/video/zm3FneBbG_U/w-d-xo.html
Also, TH-cam Music has a student plan for $4.99 / month and there is a TH-cam Premium student plan for $6.99 / month.
Spotify technically does have ChromeCast support you click the button at the bottom left then select your ChromeCast when you’re on the same Wi-Fi network.
Thanks, we meant to say Sonos instead of Spotify.🤦♂️😂
Haha, that’s alright, it happens to the best of us
spotify has a even better student deal, im on it and i only pay 1.50 usd a month (in india you only pay roughly 1 usd, depends on your location).
@@SethPlummer صصصصص٢صصصصصص
The biggest difference is that TH-cam has a LOT more music. Uploaded remixes, mashups, unreleased versions, bootlegs, explicit language versions, music video audio with the scripting, karaoke versions, 12' or extended versions, imports... I can never find these versions on Spotify. They seem to only have radio versions. I like finding EVERYTHING not just canned radio.
You-Tube Music premium is constantly updating and getting better and better. I personally love it. There much more then this video shows now. Including 6 "your Mixes" and a super mix. And making your mixes constantly. It always recommends more things for your specific play list. I personally love it.
It also has more older songs than spotify
@@fbringiton I've had you tube music for a while but iam transferring to spotify. I have SONOS speakers through out the whole house and youtube music has a limit of 99 playlist on sonos controller. Can't even play my yt music playlist through sonos cause of the playlist limit:( this does not happens on the app itself though only when using sonos controller which I have to cause houtube music does not have option of casting straight to wifi speakers like spotify does. I have over 250 playlist of different genre. With spotify I don't even need to use sonos controller I can cast straight from app to sonos:) I do like youtube but unfortunately not working out for me and there is no way of talking to somebody if you need help which sucks.
This is super helpful to know, thanks!
U can’t play in the background without premium with yt music
One thing: TH-cam actually has a MUCH bigger selection than spotify. Spotify doesn’t even have some of my favorite albums
All TH-cam music are from video this is why it has more songs
Quaid Sir Exactly, so I can listen to my indie bands because I know it’ll have their music😎
I had the same problem as you, I really wanted to listen to maplestory bgm but spotify didn't have any, so I just converted them to mp3 with good audio, then went into spotify's local files, choose the file where I had the download mp3s, and bam, I could play them on my desktop. Then you just have to look up a tutorial on how to download those files onto your phone, its quite easy. TH-cam doesn't have crossfade which is a godsent, and the audio quality in spotify is much better, ntm I can watch my favorite podcast joe rogan now which I usually did on youtube to sleep, now I can just set a sleep timer at the end of the episode.
I was trying to find an alternative to youtube since it kept censoring content creators, not to mention banning a youtuber with 5m+ subs for "bullying/hate speech" when he didn't have any previous strikes, glad I got spotify and unsubscribed from youtube premium, I suggest you do the same ;)
@iiDonutGamezz 35 um, you can pick your own song, or choose any playlist, what phone are you using lol. Get an android, apple sucks.
@iiDonutGamezz 35 oh, you're talking about non premium spotify, yea lol its a pain, you should get the premium version though.
I just use youtube on brave browser so there's no ads or anything, but spotify imo is def worth getting. Using the free version is aids
TH-cam music is superior and I say this as a Spotify user.
I have TH-cam music and would say the opposite. I use Spotify free version and it is so much better than TH-cam music premium it’s almost funny. That’s the PAID version of TH-cam music is WORSE than the FREE version of Spotify.
@@percival5697 Not everyone listens to music through their computer lmao. The free version of TH-cam music allows for infinite streams on mobile and far more songs to choose from
@@percival5697 mhm not really. comparing the song catalog i would say its easily utube music
I’ve been trying out TH-cam music recently and I really do like it. I’ve been a Spotify user since day one which has been over 10 years. Unless there is a clear personal bias I see no way that TH-cam music is better than Spotify. Spotify is still most definitely better. TH-cam music does offer more songs but a lot of the additional songs that you can’t find on Spotify come in inferior audio quality on TH-cam music because most of them were uploaded to TH-cam with a crappy audio quality to begin with. Both platforms are very good but Spotify is still the better one.
@@davidmetcalf6946 Official song uploads on TH-cam have equal sound quality to Spotify. Besides, TH-cam Premium isn't required for infinite streams, and there even is a lyrics option
"Spotify vs TH-cam Music"
I clicked to the title and it shows an ad for Deezer 🤣🤣🤣
ME TOOO
Same here hehe
it's because Deezer is the better option. By a landslide.
And Deezer is available in my country whereas Spotify and TH-cam Music aren't
I didn't cos I already have premium
I used Spotify and Apple Music for almost a decade and recently switched to TH-cam Music. Subscribing to TH-cam Premium is the best decision I've ever made.
Yes, No ads
You can enjoy yt music ad free for free using yt music vanced.
Same here. Just cancelled my Apple Music subscription as it renews tomorrow. I’m using the TH-cam music trial and decided to switch over. Already have a huge playlist of songs that both Spotify and Apple Music are missing. No regrets and works seamlessly with Apple CarPlay in my car whilst driving
@@sharp9842 am using rn its so cool free prem.
Or you can use youtube vanced for free
At the end of the day... TH-cam Music has a HUGE advantage that Spotify will never have and that's being coupled with TH-cam. Some of the service needs refinement, but that comes with time and it will eventually become more refined. I think it's a matter of time before TH-cam Music grows in popularity
Seems very, Very refined now. Many Playlists made specifically for you, unlike what this video said. Plus, upload up to 100,000 songs in whatever quality you want! It's awesome! 😎🤘
I’m here after KakaoM deleted most of Seventeen’s songs on Spotify 😂😂😂
SAME.
bye i'm here after all the chaos too, i listen to dreamcatcher and they deleted their stuff too
same here bestie
SAME
Same here hahahaha idk im debating if ill keep my spotify or not orrr just be on youtube music
SO.... TH-cam Premium for everything and Spotify free for podcasts. Got it.
You could find basically any podcast you want on TH-cam so spotify isnt even good for podcasts
@@rainbowfueledunicorn8826 887,,;,*z$4
You actually can just like the podcast and then download it and you'll find it on your liked videos section on youtube music or on the youtube app under downloads.
@@rainbowfueledunicorn8826 not joe Rogan podcasts, which is basically the only podcasts I listen to
@@halfwaysleet That's true. You'll get Spotify Exclusives and probably Spotify Originals only on Spotify. However AFAIK those are also the ones that have ad breaks every 15 minutes if you use the free version. Any other podcast will be ad free.
TH-cam premium also includes youtube music, so for only $5/month more, you get ad free and offline movies as well.
@Goopy Le Grande you know you can just use an adblocker or brave browser and you won't see ads? that will save you 120 usd per year.
Spotify is far better in terms of audio quality and features such as sleep timer, crossfade, exclusive podcasts that spotify bought, and other subtle things that is very convenient, such as remembering what speed I have podcasts set to, but it still sets my song speed as normal, and being able to download songs from youtube and have it play on spotify for offline use, the list goes on. Get a student or a family plan and its quite worth every penny.
@Goopy Le Grande y r u defending Spotify so much lol did they pay for your college debt
@@halfwaysleet Yeah but the TH-cam app still has ads, and you have to pay for spotify as well, so you don't really save any money at the end of the day.
@@halfwaysleet Not really, youtube premium actually gives you google podcasts. Audio quality doesn't make sense either, yt music has an eq in it to customize with speaker output, and also has the google broadcast feature.
I think 2 months ago Spotify was the superior although yt music's new update provides new super mixes that choose songs you'll like from specific genres and tastes.
That's just the yt music app too, you also get all the youtube premium movies, I just finished a solar car racing documentary which was dope.
@Goopy Le Grande in my country it is available for 1.72 dollor for TH-cam premium+ music 👍
Can't believe I just found this channel. Randomly looking for Pixel 4 vids and arrived. Keep up the awesome content!
I'm watching this on my Pixel 4XL hehe
Nice ,your clips are clear an concise which isn't always a given .I subscribe to Spotify but due to your review I will try TH-cam music .
"Spotify has more flexible plans for students" WTF it's the same price as YT music student plan
I pay 5€ a month w spotify soo
Bruh it depends on your country, yet they both have the same price
@100-EA-100 that's actually pretty good!
youtube has more countries that offers student plans. for example, in romania, spotify student isn't available
In Greece spotify student is 3.99 but I have TH-cam music and TH-cam premium for 4.99 so...
I had Spotify for over 9 years.
At the moment I'm really enjoying TH-cam Music.
I've cut the cord on Spotify at the moment.
why??
YTM does add liked songs to the library automatically now.
TH-cam Music has better catalogue for non-English language songs. Recently TH-cam Music has a new student plan, which is slightly cheaper than Spotify.
@Aijaz Rasool You can still watch them on TH-cam Music. You can even look up stuff that wouldn't be on Spotify. For example, I am able to find live performances or unreleased songs from my favorite artist and add them to my playlist as long as they're on TH-cam.
Recently canceled Spotify after about a year and moved to YTM. TH-cam music is better. I love that they allow you to upload all your purchased songs from your previous service. Uploaded all of my and my daughters songs from Itunes, our phones and computer. Plus YTM actually does have a much larger library of music. No contest.
Nah
True, i paid for YTM only for the collections, if any song has ever been released to public, if you can't find it on TH-cam or SoundCloud/Bandcamp good luck finding it anywhere else
@@TheRealTact yt better
@@jasona9020 nah
@@TheRealTact yah
Watching this after the KakaoM debacle 😵
same .. man I love spotify but this stuff is really annoying.
Yes 😭
ME TOO AHAHA
Same
The kind of non conventional music that I listen to on TH-cam can never be found on any music streaming app
Exactly
The only thing I hate about Spotify is it mixes Podcasts with Songs.
I like to keep those both apps separate.
Moreover, I already pay for TH-cam Premium which made using TH-cam Music as a no brainer.
I love TH-cam music because it has some stuff that Spotify doesn't have but Spotify arguably has better recommendation. TH-cam premium with music is a great deal though.
That's the main (only) reason I use TH-cam Music. Several things but me about it...

💋💋
YTM has all the songs I want to listen to, Spotify always has songs that are missing.
Yup true
Free premium too lmao (yes multiples account)
I've been using Spotify for about 4 years now, what I like about it is that it (algorithm) knows me so much that pretty much every song it throws at me I ended up liking them. And the playlist suggestions are just genius and awesome. And I've been using TH-cam Premium for about 3 months, and I like it but not as much as Spotify. TH-cam music I think does not have an algorithm as powerful as Spotify as of right now.
TH-cams is better at it actually. Plus they find you more versions than Spotify as the Spotify library isn't as huge as youtube.
@@DSarDarkstar I have tried both. As a longtime Spotify user, you never underestimate the YT algorithm. However, YT will mix your music as well as video suggestions.
This isn't a problem for most, but a problem for me since I like to keep both separate. Sure, you can make a brand account, but it's very limited with the features.
Oh and also, Spotify doesn't have a hard-cap limit on how much songs/albums you have in your library anymore (excluding playlists and downloads which are still capped at 10k).
I believe YT still limits it to 5k, plus the liked songs are associated with your liked videos.
probably because you have been using spotify for 4 years while you used youtube for 3 months
@@kevindao1103 Things change... Check it again.
What are u talkin about, TikTok has the best algorithm
* TH-cam music can also stream to any device running the latest version of the TV youtube app much like you would do with a video
Thats what I was about to comment..
Spotify can do that too..
This is the most informative, well paced, full featured video on these two services I've seen since last year when I first started wondering how these two stacked up against each other! I've been with Google Play Music for years but don't want TH-cam integration at all. I'm seriously considering moving to Spotify, and this video has shown me that it may be the right choice.
I think TH-cam Music is better, but I am Polish.
There doesn't need to be any integration of TH-cam. You just get no commercials with both for $11.99/mo. I use both and they work independently if you wish. 😎🤘
Spotify - i have better playlist, good UI, more integration.
youtube - meme songs go brrr
And actually good unlicensed songs.
Glad you covered this! I've been trying both for the past 2 months and I can't decide which one to land on. The UI on TH-cam Music is so much better/smoother/prettier imo but Spotify is better at recommending new music
lol what are you talking about. Spotify works faster and smoother. Even on the iphone
@@Ivan-mf3vw I'm using them on a pixel 4, it's small stuff like Spotify not being edge to edge on Android, so the navigation bar does not feel part of the app, the gestures in the app don't work as on iphone such as swiping up/down on the now playing menu to bring up the current song playing while all that is on TH-cam music, I don't really feel that Spotify is "faster" they both feel the same while YT music feels smoother
@@noelalfaro I just went to yt.music a minute ago (windows 10) and it's just terrible. I have a little lag, and the library does not even search for my tracks (but it does not matter, now we are talking about speed). Spotify, in turn, works smoothly and quickly.
@@Ivan-mf3vw good for you man, like I said, I'm talking about my experience on a pixel 4 so the app version, stop trying to start an argument 😂
@@noelalfaro I have expressed "my experience" only because it coincides with the experience of my friends. And it's strange for me to see that someone has a radically different one.
That was a well thought out video as usual! Keep up the great job.
Thank you!
I'm liking these software/services reviews/overviews , thank you.
Am I the only one who loves Spotify but finds it missing some stuff that you could only find on youtube? I'm planning on witching to YT music but for now it's not very good, not even close to Spotify's features and optimizations. Hope to see YT music get more features and a more pleasing UI soon and I'm definitely switching
Just import your playlist to TH-cam Music. Ask youtube how.
YT music is far superior, ai is great, I mean really great, for like 1k hours of music I had maybe 3 bad musics. Smart download is one of the best features of pro version, who is insane to download music by clicking download on hundreds of clips juts enable one option and music is downloaded automatically by ai. Also it is free with YT premium and it feels more like addition for YT premium unlike on Spotify where everything feels like you need to buy pro version because they complicate everything.
Also YTm is always updating
Yea but the songs that are on spotify just sound better. I don't know if the paid version of youtube is in better quality or what though
@@user-ch6iv2bn2j Spotify just sounds better, I even tried Amazon music before which is even higher kbps than Spotify but for some reason Spotify just sounded better.
I am here because I want my Victon and Mamamoo songs back :(
should be back by now
To me its always been a no brainer. The youtube premium is the reason I've always chosen Play/TH-cam music. I don't care much about discovery or recommendations being an "old timer" who is pretty set into certain styles. As long as the music is there. Podcasts are easily found elsewhere and I don't see why the need for Spotify to mix them in. The only "cons" are I don't like when I am watching music on youtube and it tells me I should open it in YTM, and I don't really care for the videos mixed in YTM.
I'm using youtube music currently. Love it.
Can you play it while gaming? Like can i stream music from my xbox?
Thank you so much for this really inspire me to download youtube music premium
TH-cam music is far superior. I used to love spotify and it is still a very good option. But at having the premium plan in TH-cam, i have it all. Videos, music no ads. I don't understand why TH-cam Music does not have more recognition and more coverage. And the good thing it still has more room to improvement, more than spotify which seems reached its height. I could be wrong though.
Trialed TH-cam music free for a month and decided to make the switchover. The number of songs and remixes that are on TH-cam music but not on Apple Music and Spotify is astonishing! No regrets
More options too! Check out smart downloads for offline listening.
Also the 100,000 songs you can upload, in whatever quality you want, is fantastic! I have about 12,000 songs uploaded and it's amazing the selection! I have 88k to go too! Lol 😎🤘
You can also download covers of favorite songs in YT music which for a cover lover like me appreciates. There are a lot of covers of songs I liked where I (and many people) wanted a spotify version.
You really did good. Very comprehensive review thanks.
More features that this video doesn't mention about YTM: the lyrics tab when you're on any song is a game changer! Also youtube has just rolled out more daily mixes in a beta to certain users, I imagine they are testing out their ability to mix playlists like those of Spotify. They've shown up on my account and so far they're awesome!
Do u have experience with Spotify? Is it better? Cause I’m thinking of switching to YTM because I use YT Premium.
@@katierina31 I actually don't have any experience with Spotify do I can't compare the two. But I did want to point out there were features in this video that he did not mention about YTM that I personally like as a user.
I have YTM bc I have ways been a Google Play user, and when they bundled it with YT premium I was grandfathered into the price I was already paying so I've never had a price raise on my subscription. I would highly recommend switching if you're already paying for YTP! Cut the spotify bill. I've found that there isn't any music I miss out on, plus it works better with my Google Home system.
Cell phone number Megan Beyonce Savage download
@@katierina31 highly recommend YT Music. The library of music is endless, the quality of music is great, and the mixes TH-cam Music puts together, at least in my experience, have been far better than spotifys. I use the supermix almost exclusively now.
@@paulotoole9811 You’re not wrong! i couldn’t decide so I got Spotify and YTM since it comes for free when you pay for YT Premium
One thing that you didn't touch on is TH-cam music not caching music (unlike play music did). Not sure if Spotify does. It is a killer not having it if you drive into low cell service areas without planning on music to download.
Just one issue I have with TH-cam Music, and that is the ability to sort within my Playlists (Was Possible in Google Music) . If I open a Playlist, I would like to sort that Playlist by Artist or Song ext. Are there any way that I can do this basic feature?
Ayy, I see that Oh My My like!! Love it!!
TH-cam music streaming quality is miles ahead of Spotify, I agree Spotify is just much easier to find something new and that alone is a nice reason to stick with it but I just couldn't stay with them after hearing such a difference
I'm thinking about going to yt music its more handy than spotify to me and on yt music u can remixes and music vids:)
Would love to see you add Amazon Prime Music and the Unlimited version.
Personally TH-cam Music is vastly better for me since Spotify is missing a lot of music I love. Sometimes it's not that Spotify doesn't have it too because sometimes they have it but it's grayed out
5:00 You can do this on iOS too, start a timer and set When Timer Ends to “Stop Playing”.
Yes, that’s what I have been doing
I had You Tube Red/Google Play Music which became You Tube Premium / You Tube Music. Not having ads while watching You Tube is so worth it. You Music works for me but I mostly play from my own library on my phone.
That's funny, I already have no-ads TH-cam by using AdBlock Plus for free. But if you really want to pay a "protection tax" to have them _not_ show garbage that you didn't ask for on the screen that you own and control, sure, go ahead. :)
What about sound quality? Seems something often overlooked these days, but I just can't stand overly compressed music (for instance, I noticed that if I ask my google home to play music on Spotify, the sound quality will be crap, while if I start a song on Spotify and use my Google home as a Bluetooth speaker, quality will be what you expect)
Very informative and detailed overview .Bravo 👏 Great video ,subbing
What I HATE about Spotify is that it doesn't have some sort of "Discover Daily" with ONLY new songs, it' would be like "Discover Weekly" + "Daily Mix", it would be PERFECT.
YTM doesn't allow adding multiple songs to playlist, needing to add songs one by one to playlists drives me crazy...
Just add the album to your library.. Then it will add all the songs on it.
Such a thorough video! Thanks!
I love your videos!!👍

@@lulzz6126 yes. Also videos with songs in them such as videos that have been copyrighted.
That sux sometimes.
And if the song comes from a YT video flagged as "for kids" you can't even play it with the screen off on the paid subscription... Because this is actually a video platform half-heartedly masquerading as a music platform
Nice one Subscribed Please keep it comin
Hey josh, I wanna start a gaming channel any tips, recording software, camera or microphone suggestions
On TH-cam music you can share a playlist and you and your friends can add, move and delete tracks.
thats also available on spotify! :D it's called a collaborative playlist
I used to have Spotify then I tried YT music and i am never going back to Spotify. The selection is much for the kind of music I like to listen to however if you listen very popular music you won't see any difference in that regard
Even if a song isn't recognized as a 'song' on TH-cam, can I still add it to a playlist and listen to it through TH-cam music?
With the Spotify Duo plan, does that need to make two NEW accounts, or can I roll in two EXISTING ones into one pay plan?
Looks like you can roll existing ones into the plan. www.spotify.com/us/duo/?+contextual+text+bmm+us-en+google&gclsrc=aw.ds&&gclid=Cj0KCQjw7Nj5BRCZARIsABwxDKKrCEbdAqmVD6EZYA70cZ6sppnUlO61bHzAnHMpQKv9iy-YLrDUMioaAr57EALw_wcB#VIDEO_LIST-1

@@halfwaysleet How? It doesn't even have most of the songs in my TH-cam playlist
@@SquidCena yes but it has joe rogan, that's all that matters
@@SquidCena lol, I mean it has basically all of the mainstream songs, and you can also download the songs that are missing that you listen to from TH-cam and download them to listen on spotify.
I used to like playing my liked songs on YTM, I loved it when tutorials and general YT videos started playing. I especially liked it when a potato quality song plays instead of album quality. Spotify is leaps and bounds ahead of YTM. YTM and YT need to be separate entities.
This is the best and most complete video than i ever saw. Thank you for the amazing content.
TH-cam also shares the users playlists with TH-cam Music. So you can add songs to your TH-cam Music playlists via normal TH-cam.
I think people haven't used yt music for that long its really helpful to skip to any son and listen to what u want it also help that I can access the vidoe those are the best thing Spotify doesn't even give the video I really recommend t music
If like older music TH-cam are best Choise ❤️ have TH-cam Premium Awsome 👌
You have missed, quality of streaming and audio formats used to stream the music? please do let me know.
uP
You can add local files to spotify playlists and they'll appear on all your devices as well
I shifted from Spotify to yt music and I love it
I used spotify for like a year, then I switched to TH-cam music, and I prefer TH-cam music.
can someone tell me about audio quality? whats best ? for example if you have Hi-fi system and you listen to a song on youtube is it better if you go on spotify and listen it there
Very insightful, thank you!
The Spotify end of year wrap up of most listened to music is the best
Ya man!
As long as Spotify has a higher sound quality than TH-cam music .. I will stick to Spotify.
I just put the 2 side by side and the difference is very noticeable.
So I have the TH-cam Music app on my phone (don’t care for it) and I’m trying to see it there’s a way to buy albums or songs - is there a way to do that? I can’t seem to figure out if there’s a way to just purchase what I want because streaming/renting music for a monthly fee is something I don’t ever plan on doing and this one issue is the reason I’m holding off on becoming an android user.
in that case, just get tubemate or some similar free app, its more inconvenient to navigate and download songs however, but after you have your library you won't have to bother paying a monthly fee.
I just use spotify cause its a dollar 50 a month for me with a student plan, whlist living in a location where its cheap. U could try getting a family plan on spotify as well, i def recommend it
Need help here : for people who listen mainly to movie scores and soudtrack, which is the better option?
TH-cam music
2:25 Here is my biggest (not only) issue with these services. Using Google Play Music, I could buy individual songs and then stream them online OR download them to my device so I can listen offline. Neither Spotify nor TH-cam allows this. If I want to download music THAT I PAID FOR WITH MY OWN MONEY then I have to PAY THEM to do it. Could you fucking imagine buying a car and having the dealer say "You can drive it anywhere you want, but if you want to park it at your house we charge $10 per month for that."
Basically... if I'm anywhere that I can't get a decent cell signal I can't have my music collection. TH-cam and Spotify believe it's not my fucking right to have what I bought. It belongs to them somehow. Absolutely, positively and without any hesitation: Fuck them.
Might as well start stealing/download music from TH-cam from now on lol
@@rogerclarke4760 They're definitely pushing a lot of people to Bandcamp and Amazon (if Amazon still sells individual songs like they used to) and whatever else still exists that offers proper downloads, and where that doesn't work, to piracy of course.
Who's here after Spotify deleted Ong Seong Wu's songs?
Ong Who?
Nice video mate 👍
I love that you can find 15-20 different versions of a song on TH-cam Music.....AND the original version. Who wants to listen to the same version of a song you've been listening to for 10-20yrs? ANY service can do that. 💤💤💤
It just makes sense to pay for youtube premium. No ads on videos and I listen to a wide selection of music? Yt>>>spotify
7 months later, thanks for making this video. I've had Spotify for years, recently got TH-cam Premium for ad free videos, and trying to decide if it's worth dropping Spotify and getting TH-cam Music
What did you do? I'm in the same position right now.
@@tausendsonnen I stuck with Spotify. Apparently TH-cam Music has a bigger selection of music but I like Spotify's UI better. I also don't like how the only way to add songs to your "liked" playlist is to like a video, which is messy and confusing for me since I'm also "liking" non-music videos.
If you can find a friend that's up for it, Spotify now has a "Duo" plan that's $12.99 for two people. That's what I currently do with my partner and I like it for that price
@@INeverWanted2010 Alright I'll think about it. Thank you very much. 😊
TH-cam Music uses TH-cam as a source as well so the variety is amazing. Even if you would look up some weird song you heard in your childhood 20 years ago it would still be in there.
This helped me alot thank you
1 year later, YT Music has 6 daily mixes + 1 massive supermix combining all of your tastes into 1 playlist, something that Spotify doesn't have. On top of that, it has much more music, and Spotify's goal is to make you absolutely miserable without premium. One thing they don't tell you about being a free user is that they'll interrupt any playlist you're listening to (including your liked songs) with "suggested songs". Are these songs very similar to your specific tastes that Spotify thinks you'll like? Nope! It's all whatever's currently charting in the mainstream such as Ed Sheeran, Olivia Rodrigo, BTS, Glass Animals, etc. If you're a free user, you should ALWAYS go with YT Music. Their ads are also much shorter and skippable after 5 seconds, while Spotify has unskippable 30 second ads, and also plays up to 3 or 4 in a row.

TH-cam music, Cheaper for students, More music to select from, unlimited skips, adverts are shorter and can be skipped (personal experience). Downside is the app has to remain open when in use. TH-cam Music is also better at recommending me songs which I actually like. Spotify is better for maybe long journeys in the car or public transport as the app can be in the background. otherwise just use TH-cam music.
Smartest thing I’ve heard all day
I see Love Victor's theme song and Taylor Swift playlist. I like you. Anyway, thanks for the review, was thinking of switching to TH-cam music however you cannot play it in the background once the screen goes off in free version. Good insight still. 💗
Just downloaded TH-cam Music and transferred my music from Google Music to their YT Music platform. I can now retain my original music lists and can search music from TH-cam instead of using file conversion apps (I.e. Musi).
Big big fan of YT Music now.
God bless Alphabet and the YT Team!
I have apple music rn and i rlly want TH-cam music to become better because i really enjoy my slowed and reverb and lofi music
That’s why TH-cam music is king
Exactly! The only reason why I use YTM is for the lofi mixes that aren’t on Spotify
The student plan for spotify costs only around 1 USD here in the Philippines
Edi mga 50 pesos lang?
@Antonette Abe ay oke
where is the youtube desktop app?
TH-cam premium is the future.
Spotify all the way, the best app for music ever existed
Sadly though Spotify's queue feature is atrocious. Really turned me off of the app (on top of some oddball technical issues).
@@konstantinkottrup6461 Spotify is the best for me but yeah the queue feature really ruins it for me. But I can’t leave cuz Spotify algorithms are just so much better
does it play when the device is off yt?
why TH-cam music still not allowed plays music in background when screen off?
I switched from Google Play Music to Spotify Premium and have not looked back since then. It is hands down the best music app out there.
TH-cam (vevo)
Anybody know how many artist you can subscribe to on TH-cam music? Thanks in advance!
u didn't talk about one thing which is audio quality. all these services are more or less similar except for the audio.
So what can you say about it for us
