Apple Music Classical and 5 other reasons to switch from Spotify to Apple Music

If you're a music fan, there are basically two options: Spotify and Apple Music. Sure there are other music streaming services-Tidal (fave.co/44mUyNe), Amazon Music (fave.co/440JQWy), Qobuz (fave.co/3HudIMF)-but if you want access to as much music as possible, Spotify and Apple Music are head and shoulders above the rest.

But just because they're the two best services doesn't mean one doesn't have advantages over the other. Apple Music might have gotten off to a rocky start, but if you haven't checked it out in a while, there are plenty of reasons to consider dropping your Spotify Premium account and signing up for Apple Music. Here are six of them:

APPLE MUSIC CLASSICAL

The newest Apple Music feature is actually a whole new app dedicated to classical music. Included free with Individual and Family subscriptions, the Apple Music Classical (fave.co/3VwjWvN) app includes more than 5 million classical music tracks, with "hundreds of Essentials playlists, insightful composer biographies, deepdive guides for many key works, and intuitive browsing features." If classical music is your jam, you won't find anything on Spotify that even comes close.
