Why I Stopped Using Spotify (and you should too)

[@beatlefreak909]

If we had Apple Music’s quality and Spotify’s algorithm, there would be a perfect music streaming service

[@smudg39]

Yeah I'm still in awe that Apple Music doesn't have the same or better algorithm than spotify, considering their net worth. That's the only thing that's making me not shift to Apple Music. Also Spotify is just better in Windows, which is most of the time I listen there. Apple Music is just terrible in Windows and the UI is from 10 years ago. I have 80mbps and I also use ethernet cable. When I stream music while gaming, Apple Music somehow eats all the internet data.

[@Diablo22967]

The connect feature using your tv is getting worse. the handoff is 50% wrong, basically starting my tracks over and switching auido to tv when I'm trying to pause when my phone is the audio source

[@duckyuphere]

​@gideonkok2071 that happens to me when I'm not on the same network or I'm on a VPN. Turn the VPN off restart PC and it switches music seamlessly with no cuts. I'm guessing not being on the same IP address causes input lag in Spotifys server. Who nnows, seems interests.

I feel like this video told me apple music is great if you have an itunes library, and/or want to listen to lossless audio at no upfront cost, other than a subscription which may or may not be through your provider. It would seem to me that this implies that Apple music is missing value that they rely on me to provide.

[@99Gara99]

I'm an android guy myself and will never use apple. I don't pay for those services like spotify because they are predatory monopolies and I believe they at least have to be free (google monopoly), so that people with no money can use the services as well.

[@bab027]

Spotify has terrible compression. Tidal, Qobuz and Apple Music sound so much better. What I miss on Spotify is the social aspect of it and the seamless switching from one device to another. I would be really happy when this finally arrives to other music services. But right now because of how much it bothers me, I can’t be on Spotify because of how it sounds like the songs are blown and lose a lot of sounds.

As a music nerd, I tried all the streaming services ( Tidal, Spotify, Apple music ... ). Spotify wins in terms of user friendliness, as well as due to the eco system around it. You can literally install it on anything and control everything from your phone. Tidal and Apple music win when it comes to sound quality. Even 320kbs from Tidal and Apple music is better than 320kbs from Spotify. They are clearer and louder. I ended up staying with Apple music because I'm an iPhone user and it works really great. Spotify is TikTok for me, while using Apple music I feel like it's something really mine, if you understand me.

[@asphaltanimal8809]

Even I used to use spotify but nowadays I feel like you have to pay for a lot of the basic features making this new app much better

[@VariantAEC]

No. That is because Apple's audio quality is no better than any other app I've used. I don't use Spotify on "Low" quality either. Whether streaming or listening offline I use "High" or more often "Very High" quality options (even on mobile data). I'm not saying Spotify provides the best quality audio and I do at least agree with you that Spotify seems to be quieter, but louder doesn't mean higher quality. The quality sounds the same and turning down other apps to reach Spotify's lows allows you to meaningfully hear that there's nothing between them. Alternatively, and this is frowned upon by tge companies, you can rip the streams to compare the files as downloaded and played which I've done and noticed... there's nothing between them aside from placebo.

[@pguijt]

@VariantAEC so the sound differend is just different not not per se better interesting. I think i can exsplane its the Honeymoon phase. But wen you are over that do it again for comparison. Like louder is not better Hearing more details is better and stuf he is silly he did not talk about that in the video lol Like you got a new phone how much better is it your last phone if it's only A year old you think it's better in the beginning and then you compare and there's not a lot differents Yes it's better but how much

I personally stopped using it because when I skipped songs too much it would stop playing by itself so I would have to manually click on a song or switch it each time unless I am cleared out all the settings which requires me to turn up sound quality again

I love Spotify, but about a year ago when they started pushing spoken-word content on the main app page, I realized I like my podcast/audiobook app(s) and music apps to be different. So I went back to Apple Music. Oh, and the other reason was Spotify never brought out their lossless tier. That said, Spotify is still the best for AI recommendations. In that regard, Apple isn't terrible, but not the best.

[@educatin7559]

Spotify is the better option for the largest audience. Quality honestly doesn't matter much. I even know people who switched from apple Music to spotify for the features, and they don't care about the quality drop. There is ONE feature, tho that I would like to see on spotify, and I think they might implement it soon. The karaoke mode/turning off the voice.

This is exactly what I meant when I told my friends Apple Music has better sound quality.

I’ve been using apple music for the past 2 years and I’d never leave it I was in a family plan with Spotify with my nana but I left for Apple Music

[@josh3326]

When using an iPhone, Spotify allows you to use their true EQ, whereas Apple Music doesn't have an EQ, just presets......which is bad. So I use Spotify, have Apple too, but solely Spotify for preferred sound.

Great video for any audiophiles. I like your selection of post-hardcore and metalcore artists!

[@PeteMatheson]

Thank you! 🙌🏼

Any audiophile that knows a little bit about audio won't like this video as it contains false information.

[@joshuvaantonio]

@@azamat19True that! Everyone here are AudioFools instead of Audiophiles Either sound check is on or off in Apple Music Or Audio Normalisation is on or off in Spotify Test them both in same settings. Nobody can hear a difference between mp3 320kbps vs lossless Dont believe me? Do a blind test Abx/digitalfeed/net Replace / with dot

David Lee Roth was harshly criticized by Wolfgang Van Halen for keeping the A Different Kind Of Truth album off Spotify . This must be why . And some artists think they're getting ripped off from Spotify ( allegedly )

I used to use Apple Music, but the recommendation system of Spotify really drew me away from Apple Music.

[@JaliceTheShort]

Spotify made literally the most important details of a music app ONLY premium. Where lyrics, shuffle, loop, let alone stopping the shuffle, a bunch of vocaloid songs are altered making it really bad quality (example "ECHO") and some songs aren't available in certain countries are all premium. You can only listen to music, but songs that aren't even in your playlist are there too. The whole app is in a paywall, nothing else.

Bro to listen to my favourite music on Spotify I have to pay for premium like wth

[@andreaslassak2111]

If you are limited by BT, and your device and headphones doesnt support LoDAC or Aptx formats .. you are still limited to wired option.

Spotify Connect literally runs my stream, so i couldn't never move

[@AnnesleyPlaceDub70]

Great upload, I've just switched to Apple Music from Spotify on my S23 Ultra and the difference for me is the sound quality , it's a class above. I'm no spring chicken either I'm 53 and a life long audiophile.

what do you listen with?
