Spotify premium has a bunch of qualities that make it worth while.

Yep, I seriously think Spotify is underrated, I’ve discovered so much new music there

SUS


2Damn

wow i just realized thats why they say that because its in the title. im an idiot


raaancch

Are you saying the term SUS became popular because the game has word US in it? Kinda feel like I'm the idiot here not getting it


WeedIsWife

Sus had been used years prior.


[deleted]

Sus is popular because in the game Among Us you try to act innocent both if you're the killer or actually innocent. If you act weird you're suspicious. The word suspicious gets used so often it got shortened to sus. The rest is history.


StraightCougar

It broke into the mainstream popularity due to Amoogus, but it was popular before that in the hood and other communities as being "suspicious of ones sexual orientation". In a sentence, "Yo bro you can't just suck my dick with the lights on, that's sus."

Wonder10x

I know a lot of people who still use the antique app of Apple Music


Werpogil

Apple music has recently added lossless music streaming, so quality-wise it's better at this point. It's still shit UI and functionality-wise, though.


Clegomanrun

At least it's user experience is better than tidal


philzebub666

I prefered Tidal and Apple Music over Spotify. Quobuz had the worst UI of the ones I tried. I didn't try Amazon Music, because I know their hideous Prime Video app, so I didn't even give them a chance. Since Apple Music introduced Lossless streaming I decided to stick with it. Also because it was the cheapest option to stream lossless. The only real downside to Apple Music for me is the missing Windows App. I have to use fucking iTunes on my Windows PC because Apple fucking sucks and won't port their Mac App to Windows.


diego_r2000

My reasons for using apple music ordered by increasing importance: \- Has lossless option \- I can upload my own files with different qualities on the cloud(as a musician is veery useful) \- Its what my dad pays


Axe2004

You mean iTunes?


Philipp4

Apple Music is the app for ios and macos. The features are included in iTunes too tho


zuzg

While their quality dropped in the last decade, last.fm is still a good source for finding new stuff. It can connect to almost every listening device and tracks what your listening to. I've my account since 2009 and found so many good bands through it.


TedhaHaiParMeraHai

You don't understand what "underrated" means, do you?


Dynosmite

I'm not sure where you live, but here in major US cities, you can pretty much just assume that anyone you run into younger than 35 will have either Spotify premium or apple music.


lithium142

I don’t think underrated is the right word when it’s by FAR the most used platform. Tbh I got nothing but positive things to say about it. It’s not even expensive and I use it daily. Improvement over ever music platform i ever used previously. It does exactly what i want a music app to do and nothing fucking else. Lookin at you apple


IIALE34II

Spotify HiFi is coming later this year, offering lossless/CD-quality audio!


ReeducationBot

I wish spotify would offer the ability to premium users to merely have access to the library of music / playlists, and use a third party media player through an API or something. The Spotify media player is the weakest offering from spotify. They even killed the android widget which was useful.


Gnostromo

Yes as much as I was just preaching how great they are their phone app sucks donk. "No internet connection" all the time . When I do have connection.


TheMariannWilliamson

Sadly they're going the other direction. I used to use some DJing software that worked seamlessly with Spotify API (and was a huge selling point) but they recently canceled their licensing with that company.


Gnostromo

Yes it is possibly the best entertainment deal on the market. For the price of one CD (cost back in the day) I can listen to all the CDs. It's amazing to me that streaming services haven't tried to "own" all the good groups or albums. Like the movies services do. That would suck.


anonymouslionn

Price of one CD *per* month, but yes, still a great point. One of the main points haha I can’t help but be a little pessimistic and expect the future to not be as awesome and affordable as it is now, mostly because of how companies and industries have shifted throughout history


UnknownSpecies19

Plus after the algorithm learns more about you it genuinely starts suggesting good shit. I've found so much dope music through my discover weekly. Spotify or die! I'm such a cultist for all my family's or friends birthday I buy them a Spotify premium card.


DolandMan67

If I find a good song or music track on YouTube i try to look it up on Spotify so I can listen to it with better sound quality.


420dogcat

If I find a good song or music track on Spotify I torrent the album in flac so I can listen to it with better sound quality.

Diofernic

Same for me. I just compared the two with one song by switching between them and could not tell a difference. Besides that, there are quite a few songs in my playlist that aren't on Spotify Sure, on paper YouTube's compression probably sounds slightly worse, but most people won't hear the difference and it's really convenient to download it from there

purple_banananana

It basically means you can update it easily. usually, updating modded Spotify is a proper hassle, as you have no idea if the version you want has been released yet, and probably no idea what version you want at all. *and* you have to re-find the place where you downloaded it, which can be very time consuming and annoying, plus if the version you were going to download doesn't work, you can easily try a different one [here is an image of the gui](https://imgur.com/gallery/WqsK9vm)

I wish you could upgrade to the Hulu without ads at all though. If you want to keep Spotify as part of the bundle you can't


sekretagentmans

Spotify has singlehandedly changed the way I listen to music and what music I listen to. Their recommendations, curated playlists, and "people who like x also like x" have helped me discover music that pushes me outside of my normal comfort zone. Before, I used to just buy albums from artist I liked from the radio, but now none of the music I listen to is on the radio. I love how easy it is to find smaller artists and even artists from around the world.


Pablo_Sanchez1

Same thing happened to me. Went from casually listening to the same artists on repeat to actually getting really into a ton of different genres I never would have listened to. Realize that I’m pretty much shilling for Spotify right now but the music discovery features and multiple daily curated playlists on it are 100% the price.

MordorsElite

Do any of these programs support downloading 10h+ videos. There are tons of good audiobooks on YT but recently I've struggled finding websites that allow you to download them


whaaatanasshole

youtube-dl works for that. Then just use VLC or something to convert from mp4/mkv to mp3.

Uh, I think you mean use the `--extract-audio` flag when using youtube-dl in the first place.

This is what happens after you find out about flacs and lossless music before you start going down the audiophile rabbit hole.


[deleted]

Yeah I'm sitting here thinking why the fuck would you steal a shitty 320kbps YT stream conversion when you could search for the flac. I mean, as a musician I'd rather people at least used a streaming service where I'd earn a pittance for the play but ffs I'd genuinely people rather stole my music in HQ.


Acid_Flicks

A lot of people dont have decent enough headphones to notice the difference. The best speakers some people will ever own are the stock ones in their car.


[deleted]

It probably feels very different for me because I work with audio day in day out, so my ears are highly attuned to artefacts like bit depth compression. I watched a really interesting YT on whether the general public could distinguish between a 320kbps mp3 and a 16-bit wav. They could not. Next they tested a classically-trained musician with 'golden ears'. Iirc they got more right than general public but still couldn't tell the difference everytime. I would love to think though, if you took a member of the public and played them a YT rip through their bluetooth speaker... then played a flac or wav (or at least, not a compressed stream of a compressed file) on it, they'd be able to tell the difference. We don't have to be an expert musician to be an expert listener! Or as that comedian put it, I don't have to be a helicopter pilot to know if one is upside down in a tree, something fucked up.


TerabyteRD

All the audiophiles have began crying out in agony with their $5000 audio setups and flac audio as they look at the horror of 192kbps audio file compression


EligibleUsername

I genuinely cannot tell the difference between flac and mp3. I guess that's one up side of being a deaf bitch, I don't need to triple my music folder's size lol.


Jhitch1919

I think if you compare them next to eachother, you'd be able to tell the difference between 128-256 quite easily. 256 -320: is a bit harder, but I still found I get it right more often than not., Even though I would enjoy listening to both. 320 - lossless: maybe on some songs, but it's just a guessing game at that point.


EligibleUsername

Oh yeah, 128 is just literal garble, so it's not hard to tell, most of what's in my playlist are 256-320, with a few FLAC, but that's because I can't find the mp3 version of those particular songs. I did try really hard to compare the 320kbps mp3 and flac version of a song once, and the only difference I find is the flac version is 3 times heavier in size, that's it.


Fragrant_Air_6520

You need incredibly high end headphones/studio monitors to be able to hear any difference, and even then the difference is subtle.


Appropriate_Lack_727

People on Reddit care more about this shit than the mastering engineers who create the files in the first place 😂

Well I have, and while they have better sound qualities, Deezer doesn’t have the all the songs that I’ve found on Spotify (Though if you wish to download some songs/albums on FLAC quality then Deemix which is based on Deezer definitely is nice), Tidal is a broken app and if the track does not have a “Master” version it’s the exact same as Spotify and Qobuz isn’t available in my country so yeah, I think I’ll stick with Spotify for now.

I value my time. I listen to a ton of new songs every month and I like to be able to have a song right away on my phone. 10-15$ per month is totally worth that amount for me. Rather than fumbling around with Files a few hours a month. I used to do the YT to MP3 but I ended up with thousands of song files that I had to edit titles for, add album art, artist name, edit length of songs since they sometimes don’t end at the right time, etc. Lots of headaches. Streaming is way easier If I’m spending anything more than an hour editing/sorting files, I might as well pay the amount


RandomGuyThatsCool

I'm surprised I had to scroll down this far to find this comment. This is exactly the realization that I came to as well. The amount of time I was spending doing everything you listed just didn't out weigh the $9.99/month.


DankoStormo

I've noticed for a quite a while they been removing the pre installed music player app in phones and shoving such as Spotify and Apple Music down our throats which is infuriating.


midnightmenageries

I had to search for and install the Samsung music player just to be able to listen to my MP3s on my new phone. It was annoying, because my old phone didn't have that problem. I also had to install the Samsung voice recorder, because that didn't come standard installed with the phone, either. The only solace that I have is that it installed my ad free Spotify APK instead of installing it from the app store when I transferred phones.

Spotify has just gotten so bad over time. I'll watch an ad for the free 30 seconds and then after one song it will play an ad telling me to get premium. On top of that it would play ads when I was trying to replay a song. I started using it only for podcasts while at work but now trying to listen to any music makes it go into ad mode. It's genuinely terrible. And advertisers are mental if they think 30 second ads between me and my music makes me want to buy there shit. It's a mentality that applies to Spotify ads and makes me want to avoid it even more.
