Depending on your point of view, YouTube Music is far inferior to Spotify. The key advantage to Spotify is that they have apps for all platforms and have a much better integration story than YouTube Music. For example, I can stream directly from the Spotify app on Android to my Sonos speakers, I can use a Spotify app on my Samsung TV, I can integrate Spotify on my Home Assistant server, and I can sync Spotify playlists to my Garmin watch for offline access. None of that is possible with YouTube Music.
- anoonmoose 5y agoSome of those things I can do (I can stream directly from the YTM app to many different devices in my house, I don't have any Sonos stuff though) Some of it I never even thought of doing (no Home Assistant, Garmin watch) Some of those things I explicitly do not want to do (my TV is hooked up to a Windows PC with wireless keyboard, using an app directly on the TV sounds like a strict downgrade in usability) I'd say it's less of a "point of view" thing and more of a "how do you interact with computers and the IoT" thing
