I don't use any apple software - Spotify for me.
It’s the noise, the passion, the feeling of belonging, the pride in your city.

I've used it for years, always found it to be simple and reliable but appears to have gone downhill lately. My three month trial with Apple Music has been good but it looks like they're trying to phase out the idea the user's standard music library - something which I've always enjoyed having. Spotify doesn't really offer a solution.

What's Amazon Prime like for music discovery? I've been reluctant to move over from Spotify to Prime in case the discovery isn't very good.

Been on Spotify for years and don't see any reason to change. They've definitely improved the discover features and that's pretty much the main reason I use it.

Spotify obviously. I'm guessing Apple music is the same but three times the price, with invasive privacy settings and a horrible interface that favours style over function?

Same price I think (£9.99). The interface is fine unlike iTunes, but I would say the problem with Apple music is that they've tried to combine a streaming service into iTunes which has turned it into an even bigger mess rather than have them as two separate entities.

Nah, Spotify has a better library tbh.

There's some decent TV shows like Hand of God but agree that the films are pretty s****.
