Example: Mine is Pandora, but I’ve used Jango for more independent artists as well.

    Until it doesn’t. Until the service is killed and you need to use a new one, and your library doesn’t migrate over. I got sick of Google just killing everything and not supporting anything. I remember when Google play music was killed and ytm was a way worse interface. Ad blocker and Spotify for me.

      I agree with that. I think YouTube won’t be killed as long as it is the biggest platform for videos, but I’m not sure about ytm.

      I think it’s fine? What’s wrong with it?

        Did you ever use Google play music? Interface was way better. I remember when they first kicked it over I’m like “am I watching a YouTube video of this song, or is this like the actual song front the actual artist?”

        It just crammed it all into one and I had no idea if I was getting the good quality original songs half the time.

          I miss this service, a lot.

          You can even buy songs (I can’t remember if they’re DRM-free like iTunes), not sure why they took out that functionality.

          I used to be a Google Play Music user and it definitely took time to understand the new interface, but it’s not that bad after you get used to it. From my perspective you’re just hating whatever new to you.
