Both are subscription music services with similar features, if you are invested in iOS devices (iPhone, Apple TV etc.) Apple Music to me is a better way to go as you can use SIRI to ask for your music, e.g. "Play Taylor Swift" or "Play the top 20 songs of 1984" or "Play country music" etc. You can ask SIRI on the iPhone and also use the SIRI remote on the fourth generation Apple TV to ask for music. With Apple Music you can select an artist or a song and play a radio station based on this artist or song which has similar music and yes, you can download music for off-line listening, but of course if you stop paying your subscription you don't have access to that music any more. Also, if you are part of a family Apple Music costs $14.99 and then up to 4 people which must be part of your family account can use it and each can have their own suggestions, preferences etc. If you Google "Apple Music vs Spotify" you find all sorts of articles which probably go into much more details as to where one service is better than the other. One thing that came up right away when I did this was an article which said that Spotify says they have "More than 30 Million songs" but they don't say how many more. Apple Music claims they have 40 million songs, I think Apple Music has an exclusive on Taylor Swift, but I don't know if this is the case any more. You can definitely play artists and albums ond emand with Apple Music whenever you want and download entire albums, but again, you have to maintain your subscription in order for them to play.

I already have a Spotify account, and pay for the service as of right now. I really enjoy it! I do know a lot of what I will get from this question will be opinions, but that is certainly all right. I really enjoy my Spotify account, because I can choose what I want to listen to, I can choose other artists that are similar to the artist I like, I can listen to certain things off-line, though I haven't tried this feature out yet. I can save stuff. And just other things that I really like about it. So my question is this. Are there really any differences between what you can do with Spotify, and what you can do with Apple Music? For instance, if I want an album, or certain songs with Apple Music, would I still have to pay for them, even if I have an account? Does anyone really know if one service offers more music and stuff, then the other service? If so, how would anyone really actually know this? And last but not least, when I go to download songs, when the show, the voice is on, I have course have to pay for them. What I have to do this if I had an Apple Music account? If I do still have to pay, or I mean, if I don't have to pay, does anyone know if the votes for the person would count? Any thoughts or suggestions on this would really be appreciated. The voice is really the only reality TV show that I like. And since I don't use Twitter, downloading from Apple is the only way I can vote, when it comes time for this.
