Whether you're listening through Airpods or classic headphones everyone streams music. I wanted to see how New Hope students streamed theirs. I sent out a poll with options such as Apple music, Spotify, SoundCloud, Amazon Music, YouTube, iTunes, the radio and a space to share other venues (which got a response of Clash Royale, which I had never heard of).
I was shocked to see that so many people choose Spotify over the clearly better option, Apple Music! Apple Music really just hits different. People can try to change my mind all they want but ultimately we all know Apple Music is superior to Spotify. They cost the same but unlike Spotify which didn't have Beyoncé's Lemonade album that came out in 2016 until 2018, you get new music right when it comes out. Another problem with Spotify, SoundCloud and Amazon Music is that they tend to have missing songs, albums, and artists in their catalogs where Apple music is careful to have all the favorites. This basically comes down to numbers. Apple Music has over 45 million songs in its catalogue compared to Spotify’s 30 million+ song catalog.
So if you want ALL your favorites songs when they come out you guys need to get rid of whatever app you're using and get on Apple Music.
