This is Applelised And both those of us who write on this blog and the vast majority of those who follow us day by day, we are passionate about the products Apple However, the reality is that nothing in this world is perfect, making everyone happy is a task that, so far, has proven impossible, and therefore Apple Music, which has only been between us for a few hours, is not perfect either; each user will find their pros and cons regarding the hitherto undisputed king Spotify And, although in general it is most likely that the vast majority of apple users are more satisfied than the competition, it is also true that we will find some fault. Let's see the main advantages and disadvantages of Apple Music compared to Spotify.
Apple Music, what you will gain, and what you will lose
Apple Music just started hard. Whether you plan to subscribe or not, the reality is that the service is there, on your device, yes or yes and that, since you have three months free, you are going to try it. Against that nothing can Spotify, not Pandora, not Deezer, not anyone.
Advantages that Apple Music offers you
- Let's start with the obvious, with three months free What are you going to lose if you don't end up liking it?
- La family subscription, and who says family, says friends, is the cheapest on the market, for now. Only € 14,99 for up to 6 members that will work completely independently compared to Spotify's € 29,99 for 5 members.
- Unmatched integration. I have come up with a couplet but it is like that. The hardware-software integration of Apple it has not yet been reached, far from it, by anyone.
- Catalogue. Although at first it seems that there will be absences, the company assures that Apple Music it will have 37 million songs compared to 30 million on Spotify.
- If you are passionate Taylor Swift, you will only have it in Apple Music, and this despite the controversy of the last week, at least as long as Spotify offers music in exchange for publicity.
Disadvantages of Apple Music compared to Spotify
As the grandmothers and the corny say, not everything is rosy. The move from Spotify to Apple Music It will also make you miss a few tidbits.
- Audio quality. The maximum in Spotify is 320 kbps compared to 256 kbps in Apple Music although those who understand this say that it does not necessarily imply that it has to sound worse. Without a doubt my gift of hearing will not be the best one to answer this question.
- Digital Platforms. Only Windows and Android will receive Apple Music while Spotify is also on BlackBerry, web, Linux or Windows Phone. Personally I think that everything will work. Also, Spotify is compatible with other devices like PS 4, Sonos, Gramofon, certain TV brands, Roku, and others.
- Red social. With Connect, Apple Music bet on a different concept of digital social relationships: artists can share lyrics, song previews and more and you can say that you like it. The social integration of Spotify is, undeniably, much greater.
- Subscriber lists. The playlists made by the users themselves and shared by them are also undoubtedly a great incentive to stay on Spotify.
And now that you know a little more about Apple Music, do like me and hit play, the three free months fly by and a decision will have to be made.
