Title: Which music radio streaming service do you use?
Post by: digi on Sun, 29 November 2015, 16:47:53

I've been using Pandora forever..not sure if I should renew or not.

What do you use to stream music on your comp or mobile device?

Spotify. I like it a lot, has an app on Windows Phone, can download my playlists to my phone so I can listen offline, and it's easy as **** to use. Plus pretty much every song I could ever want on there. I'm not that bothered about the quality of the music on there, so all of that argument doesn't bother me that much.

I use Google play music all access. I've been a day one subscriber, and came from Spotify. Now that Google includes YouTube red with the subscription, I doubt I'll ever switch.

Pandora One. I've tried Google Play for a free trial, but I found it's just too pop music-oriented. Pandora does a way better job with classical. Not sure if that's due to a better selection, better suggestion algorithms, broader user base, or some combination of those things.

I keep all the music I own on Google Music but lately it frustrates me how I have to click through so many dumb things just to get to my albums. First it opens up to Listen Now, which just has a bunch of arbitrary auto mixes I don't want. Then I have to click into the little menu and click on My Library, which opens up to My Stations, which I'm not sure where those came from since I never chose any stations. So I can't even get to the My Albums tab without swiping to the side. Why doesn't it just start there, or give me a setting to choose where it starts?

Plex. I stream the music saved on my PC from anywhere. Movies and TV shows, too.

I've used Pandora and Spotify in the past as well.

Spotify as well. Tried Apple Music but it's just too confusing sometimes.

I like those Spotify playlists, they make more sense that Apple's.
