I listen mostly to classical music, and I'm looking for an alternative for Amazon Music, which I find almost anything I want and with a high definition sound, including Dolby Atmos.

I found two potential alternatives, Qobuz (French), and Idagio (from Berlin). Both seem quite good options. I'm tempted to choose Qobuz, because sometimes we listen to other genres at home, but Idagio looks like a paradise to classical music lovers.

A few years ago, I tried to find alternatives before subscribing to Amazon. What a good surprise now, I can even choose!

P. S. Amazon Music cancelled.

So, cancelled my Spotify subscription.

What are you using to stream music and podcasts?

- Apple Music?
- Tidal?
- Amazon Music?
- Napster?
- youtube music?

Anything else?
I will try most of these apps for a month to see what makes me happy.

But happy to hear about your opinions, especially how good the UI/UX of the (Android) App is.
Oh and it should work on Linux too.

I just saw a video of an artist responding to a fan who asked if they should stream their music on Tidal rather than on Spotify. The artist's answer: If they got all their Spotify streams on Tidal, they would earn around 4'500 $ instead of 800 $. With Apple Music, it'd still be around 2'400 $.

The numbers vary a bit, but looking up payout rates, this seems to be the right ballpark. I didn't find a handy table, so take the attached AI summary with a grain of salt.

There are almost no network effects on Spotify, but they're the biggest player, so artists can't afford not to be there. But if you care about their revenue – or even just sticking it to a de-facto monopolist –, consider switching your app. It's just a small inconvenience, but others will benefit from it. :)

Ok now I’m mad. 😡
Alexa “can’t find any music by Sarah Wallin Huff” to play when asked. I’ve known this for a while and suspected it was because my streams are under a certain threshold but especially after hearing rumors that Amazon might pull a Spotify and stop paying under the threshold of 1000 streams, it’s just infuriating. Like, us indie artists would get more streams if you just allowed Alexa to play our music.

Ugh it’s just so disheartening. 😔

#Spotify banned me a couple of years ago for illegally downloading songs so I've been trying to train Amazon #music

#AmazonMusic should ask me why I click ❤️ on a song but I skip it the next time it comes up.

I'm not fickle. I just don't want to hear the same damn songs again. I want to hear songs LIKE that song.

For me, we'll have achieved #AGI when Amazon figures that out.
