This is always a debate, whether apple music is better than spotify or spotify is better than apple music. Now both platforms cost the same, which is $10.99 monthly so what makes the difference? Well spotify is free if you don't want to pay for any plan. Paying for a plan on spotify gets you unlimited skips and no ads. But so does apple music. Apple music is the same price and has more deals than spotify. You can get Apple music cheaper at stores or when there's a partnership going on. Target usually has deals with Apple and so does the app itself. You can get 3 months or 4 months for $10.99 and then pay later those 3 or 4 months for $10.99 monthly. You can even pay in full so you don't have to pay every month. I personally have apple music and I think it works pretty well. Apple music aso has a family plan that's $16 which isn't bad at all because you can add as many people as you want to.
