    I would say its more of an alternative to Youtube Music. There are a lot of features missing in this app, like importing playlist. But still it works very well, and the song recommendation is so good that you wont feel to change the songs. All similar kind of songs will play. Its new app, so will take time to add new features, but if done, then this app will be monster.

    The best alternative to Spotify. It has the same number of western artists for 1/3 of the price. English interface is good and playlist arts are great.

    Jamendo is a community created around "free music," which means that unlike Spotify, artists can upload their music for free and their public can also download it for personal use under multiple Creative Commons licenses, making it free and legal to download.

    For commercial use, you can acquire licenses with supporting documentation through Jamendo Licensing (for use in advertising videos, documentaries, sounds for internet pages or any other multimedia projects). In this way, a certificate issued by the platform is obtained that guarantees the origin of the music and allows dealing with possible claims by third parties. You can stream all their albums either in MP3 format or in OGG Vorbis; it also offers downloads through the BitTorrent and eDonkey networks.
