Spotify, YouTube Music, Apple Music, Amazon Music HD, Qobuz, Tidal

Ever since the rise of smartphones to almost every human on earth owning one, music streaming has also grown spontaneously though not at the same pace. People with smartphones the world over are 6.378 Billion, over 80% of the world’s population. Most of the current smartphone adopters are in developing countries where recurrent expenditure on non-essential subscription fees is considered a luxury. Music streaming service providers therefore resorted to the truth and tested method that has sustained the internet for the longest; advertisements. A number of free music applications are supported with Ads with an option to remove ads by paying a premium, typically a monthly fee under $10 with most at $4.99. You can always make a few bucks straight from your smartphone.

Here are the top Music streaming apps:

Spotify

Spotify is arguably the leading music streaming platform out there has been so for many years now with 165 million paying subscribers as of Q2 2021. Spotify has a free ad-supported and a $9.99/month premium version of their services. The free ad-supported lacks some features with a limited skip per day. It also lacks the highest music streaming quality. For the music catalog that it has, the Ads are worth it. Spotify has apps for Android, iOS, Windows, Mac, and a Web App for your browser.

Spotify HiFi is Spotify’s CD-quality higher-quality, lossless audio music streaming available to premium subscribers and launched in 2021.

Spotify’s social feature recommended feature, Discovery, new music, and release radar makes Spotify a lot more accessible. It also integrated seamlessly with other consoles making it super handy.
