    YouTube Music allows you to upload songs and albums, add them to custom playlists, and stream them to any device. Spotify has a decent selection, but YouTube can be augmented to play whatever you like.

    Spotify needs account login and in free version of mobile songs are selected randomly meanwhile YouTube Music is not necessary login and you can play and download songs easily and there are many clients and ways to use the API free.

    As free use Youtube is much better than Spotify. If you pay maybe Spotify is better but remember is a "rent of songs".
