YouTube Music vs. Spotify: Which is the best music streaming service?

[@ralphparungao7026]

What i love about youtube music is their algorithm. When u play a song it will automatically play another song base on what you played first. And its very good in adding music. It feels like it knows what u wanna listen currently. It sounds weird but it is in a good way. It is so good.

[@zayntahir8876]

Another thing is it's has the collection of every music I liked in my career from KZbin and I won't have too look for the music it knows what I've been listening to my whole life and as a Pakistani you can get any song that's on KZbin and we all know there's everything on youtube

[@faizmohammad4524]

very true.

[@HtheKing]

​@Zayn tahir have you been adding these songs you've listen to over the years to a playlist, or just liking them?

[@bugraakbay]

I agree with you. With their algorithm, I have been discovering lots of impressive songs.

Never had Spotify but I think I am going to commit to KZbin Music + KZbin Premium. KZbin has just about everything and I’m sure their interface will be improved 5-10 years from now. I would say KZbin Music and KZbin Premium are the future

[@Juuk-D]

My #1 reason is KZbin Music allows you to add ANY video uploaded to KZbin so it has millions more songs, i often see "Please upload this to Spotify" under many YT videos and all the leaked music people upload on YT is another plus, and also you get KZbin Premium = no ads on any videos or songs.

[@bombastic136]

[@Yolocheese]

What won me over with Spotify over Apple Music, was the EQ feature. Spotify’s yearly wrap up and extra features always took my interest! GOD bless everyone ❤

[@NamTran-xc2ip]

Its not really a big deal. Maybe a bit if you’re using Apple devices since on Android EQ apps are free

[@herefobeer]

It’s not a concern because EQ without an amp is basically music murder. They can’t amplify a frequency using software EQ, only reduce other frequencies to give an effect. This reduces both volume and quality. There is a reason Apple never implemented one except a basic genre one.

[@sizquirtt]

Wrap up is just buncha lies

[@razorgarf]

@@herefobeer Doing EQ changes isn't an issue especially if the EQ is programmed to have gentle slopes which I don't see why it wouldn't have/use.. You know the musicians use EQ on every track of the song and the mix has enough headroom to not clip when boosting so it should be safe is my guess.

[@skamarfire]

​@@razorgarfproducers use eq in a different way... you're not boosting frequencies in a general way, but for the specific sound you are working on... he is spot on

[@xShibux]

3:14 youtube music now also supports dynamic lyrics with auto scrolling and highlights, same as spotify. For me the biggest advantage spotify has over youtube music is the desktop app. I can e.g. control my desktop app using my smartphone as remote control allowing me to play / skip songs in different rooms.

[@NoamAsulin]

It is important to mention that while both streaming services have license for 80M songs, not all of them are available everywhere. The available differ based on geographic. Also, UI preference is a matter of choice. Not everyone love the same UI

You mentioned UI. Which is the main reason I use Spotify. I had Alpha testing without commercial cirka 2009, many years ago. Since I got KZbin premium I got KZbin Music for free and more of my favourite songs are there I really want to get used to KZbin music UI but Spotify UI is so good!

[@arthurmillet8023]

KZbin Premium is the selling service. Even according to this comparison Spotify and KZbin Music are near equals; however, having an ad-free KZbin experience is worth the money in and of itself. This comparison video didn't really emphasize this feature. In fact, he said "an ad-free experience on this platform" - "this platform" being KZbin Music. But you get an ad-free YT Music experience with the basic subscription. KZbin Premium gives you an ad-free KZbin experience.

[@eppsislike]

YT music is the best. Why? Every other streaming platform can ONLY stream music that's licensed, YT Music not only has licensed music but also instrumentals, mixtapes, and unlicensed music that one can stream. That places YT easily above all other streaming platforms.

[@waggingtailluna]

The major differences: 1) Spotify can be streamed at 320 kbp max and KZbin Music @256 kbps max at the moment. (Which is literally undisguisable to our human ears, well, not atleast without some expensive sets) 2) All songs that are available on KZbin are also available in KZbin Music. 3) KZbin music COMES FREE with KZbin Premium Service (Background play, Highest video play & download possible and Ad-free) 4) Only thing remaining is to introduce "Lossless" music by KZbin Music, that would be the ENDGAME I guess.

[@jimmymac2292]

Spotify and YTM use different codec's. Spotify uses Ogg and youtube uses AAC. The max bitrate for AAC is 256k, the max for Ogg is 320k. AAC can get better sound out of more compressed files compared to Ogg and is more widely adopted.

[@aelita9316]

Current Spotify user here. I have had Spotify for YEARS, and honestly ive been thibking of switching. The algorithm is awful, the songs they recommend thats "similar" to a certain artist im listening to is nowhere close to the style of music is categorized as. My playlist has became SUPER repetitive when it was never like that. I have a TON of music, and my playlist just plays the same songs again and again and its a lil ridiculous. Im just stuck on Deezer or YT Music

[@minakanushi0099]

Spotify is just so great for listening to music, especially when it comes to its UI and its specific features I’ve been using Spotify for more than 3 years but now I think that I’m gonna move to YT Music The reason is that YT Premium is now officially supported in VN, so that I can use all of its benefits as well as YT Music. And now it seems that I dont need to use Spotify anymore ‘cause I have had an app that approximately makes a tie with it. Furthermore, I’m just a college student with not too much money so I’ve always tried to find the greatest deal with the lowest budget. In this situation, purchasing approx 110 000 vnd (for IOS) for having access to both YT Premium and YT Music is much more economical than purchasing both YT Premium and Spotify at the same time.

[@Zed-gb4zf]

I used both for a long time, and KZbin Music is the best one for sure. The algorithm is amazing. The only KZbin music's downside is the player, very poor.

[@IcyB-xg6xs]

I started using YT music as it was basically an add-on for my YT Premium subscription. I think the UX, for me personally, is far better than Spotify. I find Spotify to be needlessly animation heavy, making it far less utilitarian. YT Music doesn't look as "pretty" but it's less clunky and snappy. It doesn't sync whatever I'm currently streaming on my laptop, which is ironic because KZbin in general seamlessly transitions between devices. That's probably the only gripe I've had with YT Music in nearly an year of usage.

[@Fynal666]

You've forget to mention of integration, on how many devices you can use KZbin music or Spotify. For example I can't use KZbin music with my Alexa, so even if I'm paying for KZbin premium I'm still using Spotify to listen the music.

[@vicksy1481]

I used to use Spotify premium....Then I found that there are too many cover versons for songs, and for certain artists they had a limited catalogue....Have been using YT Music for a long time now, and I`m pretty happy with it....

[@vitorsalles5919]

1:05 just to remember that the majority and, in fact, the most listened ones are also on youtube. And in video. KZbin music should only be analyzed if taking the whole youtube premium in consideration. For me, everything on YT Premium (not YT Music Premium) is better than what Spotify Premium offers but the connectivity, that is really a dealbreaker of YT Music for most people.

[@Tetus7]

I pay for KZbin Premium and use my family's Spotify. I find Spotify's UX to be a lot more streamlined. KZbin Music is a bit messy, and it's missing things like global play counts. I'd love to switch over but the experience just isn't as pleasant.

[@layerglass]

KZbin Music for me is way better because of having available videos of remixes and custom songs that are not uploaded in any music library. It makes it a big + of having even more music available than any other music streaming service

Why is it not possible to have the last state of the music player memorised for forever? The player shpould start playing my last song listened from the point it was aborted, and playing the same play list with same settings. Very annoying this feature is missing.

[@seyadeodin]

The best thing about youtube music, and that made me choose it over spotify, is their queue system. I fucking hate how queuing songs works on spotify, where items added to a queue are removed after playing and if I already have musics on my queue and want to add a song to listen right after the one playing I have to move it manually. I mean, that's fine if you're mostly listening to static playlists and albums, but if you're like me who likes to explore more songs of a new artist you just listen, play a song you heard to two years ago and just remembered or just like to layer albums one over another like an onion its a nightmare. On YTM I can add a songs to play right next or put it at the end of the queue, and if I want to listening again I can press prev and its still there.

People give me too much shit for this, but I prefer listening to music on SoundCloud. Personally I don't get ads, I actually do not get ads at all because I have a pi hole hooked up to my router. Any and all advertising content gets filtered out before it reaches my eyes. SoundCloud has better audio streaming quality, more small creators, less ads about itself, and more options for customizability, it's own built-in EQ, as well as far more sharing and saving options. For instance, Spotify deletes music off of your Mobile device's cache, so when you go anywhere, and you want to listen to your favorite music; You're going to have to redownload it. SoundCloud doesn't do this, you can have a song or an entire playlist previously played on your device, and it will save that entire playlist of data as long as you do not restart your device. It also saves a lot of data and you don't even need to be connected to the internet to play that list. It's also harder to get lost in the UI for SoundCloud. I cannot navigate Spotify for the life of me.

Here in Brazil YT music cost me BRL12,00 reais per month (aprox USD2,50).

[@Windkinfe520]

KZbin music now does highlight lyrics and does auto scroll Also, idk about u guys, but youtube offered me 6 months of premium free, and that's something I couldn't pass up

[@ivvatchvideos]

KZbin Music UI it’s terrible and the recommendation engine is even worse.

[@prabuddhadas935]

Auto scrolling is now available in YT Music 😊

I would like to see you redo this video now that Spotify is shoving their tick tock clone down everyone's throat. It's so damn horrible I might just jump to KZbin music

[@Lalo_thr]

spotify tictok clone? this is the first time I ever hear about that 🤔

"Goodbye Apps!" | It's been a fun journey, but the time has come for me to say goodbye to all the app music services. I'm making the move to the Compact Discs, and I'm excited for a whole new world of music to be open to me. This is a journey I'm so glad to be undertaking, and I'm looking forward to seeing where it leads me. Thank you to all of my listeners and my friends who made this possible. I'm excited for the future, and I hope you will join me on this new adventure.

I run both apps half of my music is on KZbin music the other half is on Spotify

KZbin music allows to upload your own music so you forgot to mentioned this.

A while back I used to like the soundguys but now their content just seems meh! In this video for instance they talked about all the useless points and didnt mention the special diffrentiating ones such as Spotify connect, integration of both with 3rd party servies such as alexa etc. All points covered are pretty much generic expected from a beginner youtuber providing pertty basic info. Also even on their website all the earbuds rated almost witth same ranking.. really dosent add any input to your decison making... just confuses you more.

I'm telling you Spotify will give you a better experience, KZbinmusic app design SUCK It's has less song than KZbin, sure but when it's come to making a playlist of your favourite KZbin mixed song and video is a pain in the ass The only deal breaker is KZbin Premium, good job Google

[@greenishpiss3588]

Nah, it's pretty easy, also I can barely find any of the songs I like on Spotify.

[@Shadmannnn]

It won’t even let me skip a song and when I click on a song it play a whole different song 😂

[@joncruz]

Shameful YTM still can't be played on apple watch standalone, also music quality is the lowest of the 3

[@MusaThabecool]

KZbin music for me

[@khrystynakhrystal]

Spotify never plays the songs i ask for.

[@R0DBS2]

same, I am not going to pay them anything until they fix their app and loosen restrictions for free users. Many people are boycotting spotify, Including me

[@adrielymoss9283]

So sad that KZbin doesn’t have podcast. 😢

[@SuperP01]

Google Podcast left the chat.

[@Swipe650]

It's coming soon. Google podcasts is getting integrated into YTM

[@SuperP01]

@@Swipe650 yeah; recently I heard about this news. In fact today, when I opened YT Music, there was a message that said: "Now podcasts are aviable on YT Music". So... that's cool.
