In the ever-evolving world of music streaming, three major players stand out: Deezer, Apple Music, and YouTube Music. Each service offers unique features and pricing that cater to different preferences. Let's delve into the details.

Deezer, a music streaming service established in France, boasts a collection of over 90 million titles, including podcasts and audiobooks. It's internationally recognised and offers a variety of subscription options. For individual users, Deezer's premium plan costs €11.99 per month, making it slightly cheaper than Spotify's current individual plan. Those opting for an annual subscription can enjoy a reduced rate of €107.99.

One of Deezer's standout features is "Flow," a personalized playlist that combines favourite songs with new discoveries, tailored to each user's taste. Moreover, all paid Deezer subscriptions include lossless streaming in FLAC quality.

Apple Music, on the other hand, is deeply integrated with Apple devices, providing a seamless switch between iPhone, iPad, and Mac. It offers a vast music library of over 100 million songs, curated playlists, and exclusive content. Individual subscriptions cost €10.99 per month, undercutting Spotify's €12.99. However, Apple Music's family subscription costs €16.99 per month, which is more expensive than Deezer's family plan at €19.99.

Apple Music stands out with its focus on free trial periods instead of a free, ad-supported tier like Spotify. It also provides lossless audio and 3D sound with Dolby Atmos as standard. Additionally, voice control with Siri is available, enhancing the user experience.

YouTube Music, benefiting from its close connection to the video platform of the same name, offers an individual subscription at €11.99 per month, similar to Deezer and Spotify. The family plan costs €23.99. While it doesn't offer a free, ad-supported version, it does provide a discounted rate for students.

Each of these streaming services offers a unique blend of features and pricing that may appeal to different users. Whether you're a music enthusiast, a podcast lover, or an audiobook fan, there's a streaming service out there that suits your needs. Make an informed choice and enjoy your favourite tunes!
