   Spotify vs YouTube Music Comments

   Top Positive Comment by Muhammad Wasay Ur Rehman · Jul 15, 2026

   it offer very easay interface

   Top Negative Comment by OMGparticles · Aug 29, 2023

   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.

   Comment by David · Aug 5, 2024

   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".
