I am surprised that people know what amazon music is.

I'm a huge fan of Tidal. Musicians actually get paid more, probably because they're not wasting money on exclusive podcasts.
I liked tidal, until they doubled my subscription cost.
Did that happen when they rolled out HiFi for everyone? They actually lowered my HiFi family plan cost at that time, which was unexpected.
Yup. It's also when they discontinued their Military and First Responder plans.
Interestingly, my family subscription more or less halved a few months ago, which I was NOT expecting, but which was very welcome
Made the switch to Tidal, and I only have a couple nitpicks: no console app and it does this weird thing on desktop where it plays a split second of paused music when other apps or windows are opened. They're small things though, and I'm happy to be supporting artists more.
Sometimes I miss the Spotify "Radio" playlists. Also, having the desktop sync with mobile so I could just switch players and keep the same playlist was also nice. It's been over two years though and I don't miss it enough to go back, Tidal is mostly a comparable experience.
You can get a radio playlist of most songs I believe, it's a context option, unless you mean a different type of radio playlist, but the feature I mentioned has satisfied that need for me
Yes, I use the Tidal playlists, artist radio and mixes as a replacement. I swear Spotify used to have genre based radio, but it's been a while since I have used it.
3 months ago I cancelled Spotify, following yet another price increase. I went to Tidal for the 2 month trial, and another month full price.
This month I cancelled Tidal, following their deprecation of Plex integration, my finding a couple tracks with bad meta data, and some other here-and-there’s where the service was lackluster.
I’m current on Apple Music.
I like that Apple Music has lossless, like Tidal did. The Apple Music algo seems a bit better so far, even comparing to Spotify or the last time I tried Apple Music (~3-4 years ago). And, one of the things I didn’t know I wanted, music videos for my morning jam time, are better with Apple Music.
I imagine I’ll be staying here for a while.
