If you want to continue listening to music but also want to take care of your pocket and save 9.99 euros per month of Spotify Premium, we leave you several alternatives.
YouTube Music
Google is betting big on making the huge base of music that it has on YouTube also available in audio-only format in more than 70 million songs. Downloading and using the YouTube Music app is free and works under the same system as YouTube Video, showing ads before some plays.
YouTube Music app users with a YouTube Music Premium subscription will also be able to access benefits like background playback, ad-free videos, and the ability to download music for offline playback for up to 30 days on devices mobile.
Amazon Music
At the end of last year Amazon made a big move to try to nab customers who regularly subscribe to Spotify Premium. Until then, Amazon offered about 2 million songs to Amazon Music Prime subscribers, and 100 million songs additional under an Amazon Music Unlimited subscription. All content is now accessible through both subscriptions.
If you are subscribed to Amazon Prime for other benefits like Prime Video, you should know that You will have a free Amazon Music Prime account. As it happens with the free Spotify account, the main problem that you are going to have is the randomness of the songs that are played.
Last.fm
It has become one of the most popular alternatives to Spotify, yes, in its free version we are going to have to deal with advertising. Last.fm shows recommendations based on our musical tastes based on our playlists and last listened songs or snippets.
In it you can also consult information about musical events or concerts that are going to be held in your area. Creating your own playlists and knowing the most popular songs around the world is very easy with Last.fm.
Deezer
The most natural alternative to move from Spotify is Deezer, since its operation, interface and the way in which the algorithm ends up adapting to our tastes and reproductions work in a similar way.
The problem is that if you don’t want Spotify Free, you’re not going to get any benefit from using a free Deezer account either, as the shuffle system and interspersed ads also work here.
SoundCloud
Finally, SoundCloud is very appropriate if you are looking for a free alternative to Spotify with which discover new bands and artists international. It has 30 million artists from all over the world and 275 million songs available.
One of its main attractions is that we are not only going to find music by conventional artists or groups, but also mixes, improvisations or works by different DJs. On the other hand, it is possible to interact with your friends and favorite artists through the app and create playlists for any type of event or special occasion.
