YT premium always, folks using Spotify please add your reasons except the playlist things

Spotify also has flexible pricing. We could take premium for a day, week etc.  
 But of course quality wise it's always YT music

Works with more devices - alexa/ wifi speakers  
 Playlists  
 Everyone uses spotify so you're supposed to share spotify links 
 Social aspect - blends/ share profile  
 You can get add free YouTube across all devices via patched apps / ad blockers so that USP us gone  
  
 YT music has much better interface , music discoverability.. Spotify is just annoying

I can provide you Spotify premium for life ( if you're a android user)

I am using spotify premium since 5 yrs. But i am thinking to switch to YT. But what abt my liked songs and preferences? Dont you guys think there should be a feature to migrate all your liked songs???????????

I used Spotify for 2 years and now yt music for 6 months. The only reason I still have Spotify is because of my alexa device(doesn't link with yt music).

I am using Spotify since 2016(was using mod version till 2019 then it got officially released in India). I listen to music 4-5 hrs a day and spotify gives the best experience, be it like features like blend, sound capsule(it gives you the analysis of each month) it keeps you connected to the app and make you more interested. It also tells a lot about artists and there upcoming concerts. The way it switch from phone to my laptop speakers on spotify app  or you can switch to a speaker is amazing. My favourite feature is jam where it let’s multiple people play the songs in a group.  
  
 Youtube music has the best recommendation system. Just play one song and you won’t be bothered to change the song because it will play really good recommended songs. Spotify doesn’t have that good recommendation system. 
  
 I tried apple music too but didn’t like much. Song quality is really good but failed in other aspects.

I have Amazon prime membership, so I use Amazon music app

The music and podcast library of Amazon music is very limited compared to the above two, is what I feel

Told ya so many times girly talk to my Butler Cadbury first before approaching me!!!!!

YT: if you want youtube ad free and good music recommendation  
 Spotify: it’s a personal opinion because I am music fan:  
 1. Song’s collections 
 2. Intuitive UI 
 3. Jamming feature  
 4. Play from any device with same account, like you have connected speaker with mobile and mobile is not near you you can switch the songs from laptop or other devices  
 5. Album or song announcement feature 
 6. Songs can be downloaded in different quality 
 7. Huge amount of playlists  
 8. Playlist songs ends no worries, Spotify recommendation will keep on going 
 9. Spotify own created music playlist is very good like rainy, mood, gym etc. 
 10. Your year end report of music you listen too 
 11. Good connection to android auto or apple play  
 12. Equaliser is decent

Still couldn't level up my tech game since I have to use the switch board in order to turn the lights on 😌

If you have a TV or iPad, YT premium makes more sense. You can include your entire family as well.

I currently have a Spotify Premium subscription, but it expires tomorrow. A month ago, I subscribed to YouTube Music Premium and found it to be a better fit for my needs. It offers superior sound quality, a wider selection of songs, and more features. However, Spotify has a stronger podcast library.

I'm torn between the two and would like your input. Please vote in this poll to help me decide which music app you believe is superior.

Subscriptions which are worth it?

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

Spotify being one of the most loved brands has come down to this, and no wonder! We've seen popular brands being poorly rated en masse as part of agenda driven boycott campaigns, but what we see here is more of a genuine disappointment with the product by its users with its recent update.

Assuming someone on the Product side decided to rip off all the features of a basic music player to drive growth in the form of paid subscriptions, Growth additionally will also have to handle the poor Playstore ratings as the outcome.

What do you think should Spotify start doing from here? Not asking from a user's perspective (I know we all want free music without their annoying ads) but from a business perspective.

If you were the CGO or CPO at Spotify India, what's your way forward after this?

Worthwhile Subscriptions – What’s Yours?

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

There should be an easier free way to transfer Spotify playlist to YT Music (and vice versa)

This is one of the reasons why premium users don't (more like can't) switch their music app

This lack of interoperability may not be good for consumers, but businesses have been utilising this "retention by complexity" strategy to keep the churn in control. 

This retention by complexity approach, subtle yet effective, involves creating systems, services, or products that are so intricately embedded in the user’s lifestyle or workflows that the thought of switching to an alternative feels overwhelmingly cumbersome

A few examples of business (apart from Spotify): https://talesofss.com/retention-by-complexity-how-brands-keep-you-hooked/
