    I do find it amusing that GPM closing down made Apple Music the best music experience on Android. For how I browse and listen to media it’s far better than YouTube Music was for me - not to mention it actually looks really good.

        Personally, I listen to most of my music by Album, then by all albums of an artist only in my library, and finally by playlist. YouTube Music made the default organization (atleast when I tried it) by viewing the entire artist, and viewing individual albums was multiple layers deep. I also kept running into music on there having their licenses renewed (I think?) and they would be disappear from my library. I’d have to go back and re-add the albums. I just became frustrated enough I had to search for something else. I just really like the layout of My Library -> Artist (play or shuffle all) -> Albums (play or shuffle all).

        The Library system is better than the “Like” system on Spotify imo

        Also has lossless, the ability to upload your own files to the cloud, and pays artists more per stream

    Last i tried apple music on android it was terrible, and you would select a song and it would just sit there a few seconds before it played.

      I tried it in the past too and agree it was hot garbage. But I came across this thread yesterday and decided to give it another look. And I’m impressed, to be honest. It’s way better than it used to be. It’s strange to me that Apple is making one of the better music apps for Android, but here we are.

    I’d love to use Apple Music I just wish their services were just a slight more accessible. Like I love having it on the phone but I’d love to be able to just go to a website to listen on my desktop that has the same functionality and I’d love a tablet app for Apple TV+.

    I do love widgets coming back on Android though!
