Reviews

Apple Music:

Apple takes a holistic approach to music with the strongest låtkatalogen of all and add a new radio service, as well as personalization of music taste. Not revolutionary, but good. Apple earned $ 39 billion net last year. Can easily starve Spotify.

Spotify:

Spotify is one of the big and the paper 15 million paying customers. But then also expects to see them getting six months of purchase when they renew a mobile subscription. Make miljardförliuster every year.

Tidal:

The newness in the fall under a new name and with familiar faces. Will come with exclusive material from Exclusive content from Beyonce, Rihanna, Madonna, Alicia Keys, Usher and others. Superb sound quality, however, most do not care today.

Deezer:

French service which has a strong catalog and sensible price. Six million paying users. Available in most countries, but has not had much success in Sweden yet. It cooperates amongst others with the operator third
