As per title, if you had to switch away from Spotify ASAP, what streaming service would you go with? Ideally something around the same price range, meaning the change won’t incur in extra expenses. Also good if the service does its job well: playing music and paying artists. Any feature parity with Spotify is a bonus, except podcasts, which don’t require a paid streaming service. Or audiobooks. Focus on music. No piracy either (it’s illegal). The more money going to artists, the better.

Edit: extra bonus points if it is not 'Murican! Also, piracy is very illegal!!!

    I have YouTube music and… It’s pretty awful. Ytmusic will sync your liked YouTube videos with your liked music playlist. So I’ll shuffle my playlist and get this or like a 10 minute music video where half of it is just people talking.

      It doesn’t sync your liked YouTube videos unless they’re tagged as music, to be fair… But yeah, I mean, that’s a thing. I’ve only ever liked music videos myself for some 10+ years, so that doesn’t really matter to me much.

      You’re right tho, if you want to start a “liked music” playlist you should just do that instead of using the default liked videos playlist. If someone is coming over from Spotify, I guess that wouldn’t be much of a problem? Not sure, tbh.
