READ: How Apple Music compares to Spotify, Tidal, Google Play and other streaming services


They all offer about 30 million songs for about $10(half price for Apple Music Africa and Asia) a month.  The biggest differentiator remains Spotify's free, ad-supported tier on desktop and mobile. It's something that no one else can match, and it makes Spotify the obvious starting place to go if you're thinking about trying out streaming music for the first time. Of course, Apple is hoping that its three month free trial can change that, especially since its service is built right into every new iPhone.
