Apple Music is baked into the OS, no need to get extra stuff, plus it plays nice with Apple TV, etc..
Spotify is available everywhere and has free tier.
In terms of music I think they're pretty much the same beyond some commercial exclusive shit.
What option do you prefer?

I'm trying out Amazon's Music Unlimited. Been using Spotify since it came to the US.
So far, I like Amazon's mobile app much more than Spotify. But the desktop app is clunky and awkward. Since I listen mostly on Echo devices and blue tooth speakers, the desktop app isn't a major issue, but I hope they make improvements.
I'm thinking I'll probably jump ship to Amazon in the end.

When Apple Music was introduced, I tried it out, but was unimpressed with the "for you" section and at the same time super stoked on Spotify's "discover weekly" feature which had just been introduced. After my free trial expired, I never went back. Has the Apple "for you" features improved? Has the interface improved? All those things I felt didn't compare to Spotify.
- Yeh, Discover Weekly is dopefyoucher1
- also the new daily mixes are pretty goodscoops

i'm still using Apple Music to this day, but seriously the "for you" section blows hard. the mixes are pretty lame and they don't do a good job of discovering new artists, they repeat them everyday.
I listen to full albums on there mostly, I haven't really had time to create many playlists of my own which would probably make my experience better.
I find myself going back to the free Thumbprint Radio. I can leave it on a work for hours and not get bored. I've had Pandora for a long time and was always the type to upvote or downvote songs so I think I have a good amount of curation.
- Apple's "for you" just gave me more stuff from artists I already listened to. It didn't seem to be about discovery at all. They really need to fix that.monospaced

Im in the same boat. Ive been thinking about MAYBE switching to Apple Music. The only thing I feel like I'm missing are the new album release exclusives. Also, there is no family plan with Spotify which I think is lame.
But I'm pretty content with Spotify. The Discover Weekly feature is pretty awesome.
