    valid criticisms but i'll still go for YTMusic all day long just because of the infinite library it has thanks to its integration with UA-cam itself. It's something no other platform will ever match. also the fact that i'm paying 2 services for the price of one is a no brainer.

    Thanks for making the comparison! Your criticisms are definitely valid.
    I personally still love UA-cam Music, though. They've been adding new features and making UI/UX improvements (some questionable ones, too).
    I wish we could have a crossfade feature like spotify (surprised you didn't mention this). Also, a public API would do wonders for the development community and open the doors for cool third-party products.

    You were spot on with all of this. I have been using YT Music for a year or so now, and I agreed with every point made in the video. When I needed to cut costs on things, I found out YT Music was included with Premium, so cutting off Spotify was the easy choice to make. I do miss having Spotify though just because I've had that account for 10+ years at this point, so the recommendations were actually good. Having to start all that over with YT Music really sucks.

    Since this is a series now, looking forward to Amazon Music comparison! I've been using amazon music because I have a "big family" but had a lot of frustrations. Would be interested to see how it compares to other paid services.
    Also something that sets UA-cam music apart from it's competitors that it inherited from Google Play Music days (and I made a lot of use of) is that you can upload your own library to it and use it as a free streaming platform if you curate your own library. Easier than trying to setup your own cloud service but not without downsides (tracks get re-encoded, not all metadata kept, etc.)

    I travel a lot for work and found myself enjoying both. I use Spotify for downloading albums and podcasts for offline use while in the air but find myself using YT Music to download concerts (video game symphony music) as well as YT videos in general. For me having both fits but were I not a traveler then I'd probably just stick with Spotify or even the dreaded Apple Music. I recently switched over to a full Apple Ecosystem and am finding it hard to want to move to Apple Music so for now I'll continue waiving the two preferred banners. Love your content btw.

    Hey Denki, great video. I believe you hit the mark with your pros and cons. Hey, I was wondering if you mentioned in any video, Spotify’s “Smart Shuffle”? I personally love this feature for one of my playlists in particular. It really puts in fitting music to the type of songs I have. To me it feels like Pandora with unlimited skips but with better recommendations and without paying their price.

    Everything is a fair point honestly. All the same gripes and drawbacks, but also benefit (love you showing Suisei's Phony).
    Honestly, it is difficult to evaluate YT Music independently since subscription to it is basically a YT Premium subscription. I am a YT Premium subscriber foremost, so I just think of YT Music as just extras, maybe using if I kinda want to listen to Risu's KING sometime.

  • @Estrius
    @Estrius Рік тому +8

    Interestingly, the YTM free tier is what made me start using it. The ability to play whatever I wanted and skip as many times as I wanted was a huge draw. I mostly listened in my car or at my desk anyway, so I was either driving or using my computer. So having to keep the app open wasn't a big deal to me.
    YTM definitely is not perfect. The metadata issues need a lot of resolving. Even officially uploaded tracks and albums sometimes have some incorrect names or track orders. I've even seen bands' albums divided between 2-3 separate artist listings, or even incorrect albums from a band with the same name all lumped together.
    But overall, YTM definitely fits me the best. I love how good the recommendations usually are. And the way it decides what songs to play next when I just throw on a song is really good usually.

    imo the most thing i miss when i switched from spotify to youtube music was the multi device support with some universal control shenanigan. i loved playing the music from my tv speaker and control it via my phone. also youtube sometimes cant stream both video and music at the same time, so whenever someone uses my account on the tv down stairs, my music on my room would just stop and asked me if i want to prioritized playing it from my tv or whatever gadget i use to play music, which is very infuriating considering both playing different types of media

    Does UA-cam Music play your own music files?
    If so what file format and bit rate does it support? This has been a major point for me having around 130gb of music in mostly high bit rate wma, mp3 and mp4.
    After switching to iOS I found out the hard way that most of my music wasn’t supported in the Music app and most other music player apps.
    To date I have only found 1 music player that supports all my files, well it’s purpose is not a music player as such. It is a file browser that has a useable music player built in and does what every other music player won’t do on iOS.

Try scrolling to the end of a big 5000 songs playlist, Spotify 1 second, UA-cam music like 1 day 😅

My two biggest problems is that sometimes it likes to pull censored versions of songs despite the fact I have the setting to allow uncensored songs on and It's Viewer discretion is advised pop up on certain artist. You can't stop that pop up from coming up as far as I have seen and it pauses the music. So far I've only found one artist with that on there and it's rage against the machine.

    Honestly the feature that sold YT music for me, is the feature you didn't include. Personal cloud storage.
    Imagine you have some old songs which youtube doesn't have a license to anymore, but you have bought them on cd or itunes, while the rest of your music library is on YT music. It works similarly to Spotify's local library except you can take it with you, anywhere, and don't need a pc for it to work. There's a limit to 100 songs but i find it fine as for me, it's mostly for the music which doesn't get sourced to my country and it's stuff i have gotten imported instead.
    I have 2 chinese songs from a chinese "anime" (it's 3d but fits in style with anime) and the copyright holder is so aggressive that not even random uploaders can let it be available as videos. So i bought them through a proxy and got them sent to me. Now i have them available on YT music forever, without having to worry about them getting removed due to the license having expired.

    A big pro that was glossed over here is the ability to upload your own library of music to the platform. This was vaguely touched on in the cons section without any mention of how nice it is to just add the music you want to hear if you already have it downloaded or ripped. Apple own The Beatles library so my only chance to listen to it on YT Music is by uploading my own or trying to find it through UA-cam proper which can be a headache with certain artists.

    For students plan yt premium costs around a dollar, for that price it also giving the ad free music service too, so I’m using it, rather spend more on Spotify over yt premium. If i don’t need yt premium videos, I’ll use Spotify over yt music

    I agree that UA-cam music's interface is trash, but after some time you'll get used to it. As a person who doesn't use Apple music on a daily basis, i think that its interface is somehow even worse...
    So a lot comes down to what layout you're used to.
    In my opinion: song avaliability >>> better layout/making sure artist gets compensated (if a particular song is not avaliable on any other platform, the artist won't get my money anyway, so what's the difference to him xd)
    But at the end of the day, everyone has to decide for themselves

    honestly, i didn't think about the user experience not being the best compared to spotify. i had originally just downloaded songs that i liked to hear but then once i got YT Premium, I actually just use YT Music *because* I would be able to listen to songs from cover artists and things (like when you showed off with Suisei's Phony cover) that might not be on other streaming platforms. I personally deal with the quirks of YT music enough because I just love listening to so many different covers (but also because I like not having to deal with ads on YT lmao.

    Before watching this video, I will input my thoughts. My thoughts are that I can pay for UA-cam premium and get UA-cam music, which is comparable to Spotify premium, as well. This means that for a cheaper price, I can get no ads on UA-cam and also UA-cam music with no ads. It is all around better value. Also it works more seamlessly

      @dhoelath6648 10 місяців тому

      Personally I pay for Premium because while I could use an ad blocker, that doesn't support the creators I follow. It's their job and many of them don't have big sponsors to pay their rent and bills, they rely on the ad revenue.

    One thing I will say about youtube music is that it's algorithm is LEAGUES ahead of spotify. Whenever my preselected tacks end, spotify almost always plays something I don't like. It would always play something in the same genre, but never an artist I actually enjoyed listening to. UA-cam music, on the other hand, almost always knows exactly what's up my alley. It has only missed once by showing me NF after a Post Malone album.

    I am one of those people who's just too lazy to compile a playlist by myself. I just want to pick a song and let the algorithm take me to God knows where 😂 Because of this, I find that UA-cam Music's recommendations algorithm is so much suited for my needs. I'm very picky with my songs, so, more often than not, I don't like to explore new songs, especially if it's too different with what I usually listen to. YT Music's algorithm reads my pattern whenever I play a certain song (kinda creepy if we're talking about data privacy, but hey it works for me). For instance, if I play a J Pop song, they usually play similar songs that I have played before when I am in that J-Pop mood and associate other songs that I play along with that song (e.g. 1st song is YOASOBI this, 2nd YOASOBI that, 3rd is Yama this, then whenever I play one of those songs, the other two songs will be added in the queue automatically + new songs that are similar to those, but can be hit or miss). And if it's other genres or another "set of songs that I usually play together", then the algorithm will adjust to that mood that I'm currently on when I just picked a song and not a whole playlist.
    If we're talking about data, yes it is kind of scary, and if we're talking about discovering new songs, yes maybe Spotify is better, but because I like to stay in my comfort zone most of the time when I'm listening to music, this works! And that initial comfort can persuade me into listening new similar music, sometimes even without me noticing.

    I used YT premium for students for two months, its not bad. But the UI is pretty meh I enjoy the fact that I can search up music that are covered by tons of people easily. But I hate the fact that some like music overrides? Or just in general get piled up with my like songs playlist. If YT improves this somehow and clean up their UI they will get me to switch to YT easily.

    How about that Spotify doesn't offer a true shuffle option but only shuffles a select portion of your playlist? Basically you'll only ever hear a portion of your saved playlists that you spent months or years creating (as long as it's in shuffle). And now suddenly Spotify is forcing playlists into shuffle mode. Seems sketchy.

    I gotta say that I think you were way too hard on YTMusic well maybe too hard on a specific thing that you care about which is something I never even think about. I would mention how hard it can be to find new albums on date of release and the lack of fun list that Spotify allows plugins to access and create.

    Now that I'm using YT Premium, the single thing that is preventing me from switching from Spotify is Shazam. Every song that I find there can easily be tracked on Shazam. Google already has a very good feature like this but I don't want to ask Google to find the song, I just want it to do it.

    UA-cam music biggest problem is a just don't market it well when you include UA-cam premium with UA-cam music no ads it's completely better than Spotify or any other music service.
    All the issues ken is bringing up are with the app are because the app is still learning i dont have any these problems

    I don’t really understand the love for Spotify. It is a decent app with decent music selection and UI. For me personally, it is not great. I have used the premium version of Spotify and UA-cam Music, and I found them both to not be as good as Apple Music. With Apple Music, I always find some thing I want to listen to right away. I even still have iHeartRadio and Pandora. As well as a bunch of other apps that I have tried over the years. I end up going to Spotify for Podcasts, but not for music. I use UA-cam music for searching and playing songs that way, I do not mess up my spot on algorithm that I have developed in Apple Music. Apple Music is my go to app for the gym because I am not sitting there skipping songs the whole time. As much as I go to the gym, I end up going more to listen to music while I’m working out, than looking at it the other way around. So the music Hass to be good enough not to change. I just can’t seem to do that on Spotify even with the personal DJ. UA-cam. UA-cam music seems to be even worse at it. But I don’t really pay for UA-cam music. It is just included with my UA-cam premium subscription. If I ever had to pay for it separately, I would just not. Unless the algorithm was a lot better at finding music that I want to listen to. Especially new music.

    Since I have 2 devices at home, UA-cam music really isn’t a bother with having the screen on since I’m doing something else on the other phone anyways. But I understand with the screen off Spotify is better in this instance, but the free version only allows shuffle play on songs you actually want to hear, maybe for some it’s not a big deal, but for me It kinda is a dealbreaker. So UA-cam Music sorta fixes it. But Spotify is better with premium. But at home UA-cam music just makes more sense, if you have multiple phones that is.

    The free version of UA-cam music is better than the free version of Spotify music first of all UA-cam music has higher bitrate on the free version and you do not have shuffle like on Spotify that's a deal-breaker for me you could choose which song you want to play on UA-cam music going to have to choose UA-cam music yes the interface is different but it's fine

    Also true as mostly YT just keep repeating the same type of song's when you want to explore new genre or artist
