So my subscription to spotify has just expired and I'm looking at some possible alternatives. Beats is one that comes to mind especially now that there owned by Apple. But how does the service stack up to spotify? I signed up for a free trial of bears, but I'm a bit iffy about subscribing because we could very we'll see Apple completely relaunch and redo rhe service in the coming months.

What service do you use? Anyone here use beats over spotify or other services?

I use Spotify. I prefer it over beats. You get the actual song you are looking for not artists that sound like the song and artist you search for. I personally wasn't impressed with beats.

I use iTunes Match I get the iTunes music without adds. Works for me. Most of the time I listen to podcasts anyway.

Spotify! I also listen to TuneIn Radio a lot. I grew up on radio, and still like it. I'm currently beta testing the new version of the free TuneIn radio.
