    @a.cdiamonds8370 4 года назад +64

    Main pros of why I use YT :
    1. More variety of artists. You can discover more underground or non-mainstream artsists
    2. Live-performances, instrumentals, remixes
    The only major con I have with YT is something that spotify offers which is the "like" feature. On spotify, when you like mulitple songs from an artist, that will automatically create an artist playlist for you with all the songs you liked in sequence of the albums they are under. YT has no feature like this. Instead it shows all under one "Liked songs" playlist. You'll have to manually create playlists for each genre/artist which can be a hassle but for myself I can tolerate that.

    After comparing several songs back to back, face to face on RUclips Music vs Spotify vs Tidal, I noticed that RUclips Music has a louder volume and better EQ sound quality than either Spotify or Tidal. just my honest opinion.
    I've been playing guitar and dialing EQ settings on my instruments and equipment for 5 years and I could honestly swear that I think RUclips Music has clearer highs and punchier bass with a mid range scoop that isn't too severe- it's just nuanced, and it really lets the speaker kick loud enough.
    but again, just my opinion.

    RUclips music is a better deal if you pay for Premium. The pros of premium are just insane when you get used to having it. However, Spotify has the social factor and most people share Spotify playlists not RUclips music playlists, especially during social gatherings. So I'd say if it's just for you, get RUclips premium. But if you're more of a social person and love sharing music, go with Spotify.

    Ok so basically I listen to music non stop. Either on my phone or my cars stereo. I have both spotify and you tube music. For my taste when listening in my car RUclips music sound quality is higher then spotify. The bass in much more punchier and the high are very high. The rumble off the bass in loud. Spotify on the other hand not so good. I believe 320 kpbs on spotify while 256 kpbs on RUclips music. But from what I hear this isn't true. So I believe RUclips has better sound quality. More choice as far as mixes. For example clear bandit music .we have 6 different remixes of a song. While spotify only has the original and maybe on remix of the a song. So I believe RUclips music is more value for the money. This is coming from a 4 year spotify user.

    I really like the Spotify radio algorithm, sometimes I just went through a deep rabbit hole with the radio system in Spotify, it's like reading through Wikipedia. At some point, you were just reading through some documented stuff and at the end somehow you ended up reading about cats for some reason. It's how I discover new artists that I have never hear about.
    On the other hand, RUclips Music doesn't generate its Radio features really well like Spotify. They do sometimes play other artists, but when you list through the queue list, you can see that they just list up the same artist on the same album or they generate a different kind of album for that particular artist. For example, if I put up a radio for Chemical Romance, at some point you might hear Green Day played for a while, and the next song quickly jump back to Chemical Romance.
    I'm currently on RUclips Premium right now. I'm still considering changing back to Spotify. But I'm been getting used to YT music for now. Plus you get ad-free videos from watching RUclips. What's not to like about that. I've been seeing some improvement in YT Music. We'll just have to see in the near future what they might have to offer.

    For those wondering about cross platform control and compatibility with smart speakers:
    Spotify Connect allows you to listen on one device and control your media through your Alexa app, desktop, and/or mobile Spotify client(s). You can also 'Cast' to a Google smart speaker from any Spotify client, allowing you to control the media through Google Home & the client itself.
    In comparison, YT Music only supports 'Cast,' which makes sense considering both are Google products. You cannot configure YT Music directly for use with Alexa-powered devices, which also makes sense considering they are two tech giants in competition, with each offering their own streaming service. The workaround for this is using your Alexa-powered device as a Bluetooth speaker for use with YT Music (or any other media on the playback device that is to be paired). There are guides online that detail how to set that up. Although this is a viable alternative, it has its caveats and is something I (personally) would not want to do.
    For me, the decision to stay with Spotify is based on the devices I own. Spotify is compatible with Google Home & Alexa devices, with cross-platform control and an intuitive interface. As much as I want to give YT Music a chance, I am not willing to pay for another service due to streaming restrictions on devices that are not compatible with Google Cast.
    I hope this helped, and thank you Charles for this excellent comparison.

As a single consumer who cares about music diversity and uses youtube a lot and doesn't want to see ads, Spotify seems like a waste of money, not to mention it doesn't have a lot of music that I like. If I want quality music I just buy a digital version or a CD.

      for example: compare these 2 songs, the radio edit vs the extended mix.

    And in the category "discover new music" i think it is a tie.

Spotify also seems to have more recordings available that RUclips music doesn't have. So for classical music fans, Spotify is the better choice between these two.
