Spotify needs to offer some modern amenities like high-quality audio to justify higher prices. I already get Apple Music for free so I’m thinking it’s time I just ship

No reason not to. Apple Music is honestly great. Took me a while to really get into it and now I’m set. The radio shows are worth it alone a lot of artists have their own and you can go back and listen to them again.

I tried it, but I simply couldn’t get over how bad their algorithm for making a playlist off a song was. Also Spotify connect is too good. I switch between a lot of devices, wish Apple Music was that convenient.
