Turns out I can get Spotify Premium so have gone for that over the others as will get loads more use out of it - at home/in car and van / in gym / on the go
 
I'm using Spotify at the moment, very good to be fair but also overpriced.

Probably is, most things are in life ... but I'd be interested to find out how much I would spend on tunes per month if I was buying them in iTunes or somewhere else. £9.99 p/m for as much music as Spotify has though seems alright, for 'free' (obviously it's not completely) it's a no brainer I think

Think it's called Apple Music, the Jay-Z one is Tidal right ?? There's a bitTorrent app called Vuze that you could get music, tv and movies through

What bothers me about Spotify is that you don't really own any music on your device as its a streaming service. So if you go abroad and want music on the plane or whatever you're into massive data charges if you use it
 
yea thats them.

Apple music have royally pissed of many apple itards.

Its amazing how many who would never say a bad thing (bloggers) rounded wentt for apple over it.

It is this case that musci is now free. many artist don't accept it but the reality is kids are all running the free spotify now and don't even bother pirating any more. A person under 18 doesn't know about cds, itunes or owning music they think its all free now.

Apple when apple music came out moved peoples owned music around made it hard to find and prevented them playing it etc. I've a guy in the office here who's a iphone and iphone only guy due to itunes and buying music. won't ever change as itunes made it technically easy to buy and store music originally and he would hate the tech hassle. He went mental, bit of a music snob but does like the beatles and worships mccartney.... lies elbow and that paolo guy... he couldn't get this either. 40+ so thinks he owns the music etc.

Everyone has to accept music is now free. you make it at cost and hope for residuals of ads, tv videos and radio but make your money off touring and merchandise/ perfumes now. the world has changed for sure.

How long will it be before tv shows and movies are the same? they cost a LOT more to make.

It's a rip off imo, compare it to Netflix £6.99 4 seperate devices. If Spotify was around a £5 I'd be in but I'll do my 3 months for 99p and go back to free version.
