    Last time I tried apple music, i went to import my saved songs from Spotify along with my local songs. There were about 12000 of each at the time. Somehow I ended up with 40000 songs in my iTunes after it finished loading, and the interface was so slow it was basically unusable… I will be sticking with Spotify for now.

      Spotify became so slow for me that I had to move the other direction.

      I’ve manually handled my library, but I’ve used Playlisty for whatever playlists I wanted from Spotify.

        I only use Spotify for song discovery, and if I find something i really love I’ll buy it.

        I like the idea of Tidal’s plan where they pay your top artists more… But tidal is god awful at helping me find new music.

        Also, i was only talking about functionality, not artist payouts. Apple/iTunes is a functional disaster (at least if you dont own a mac).
