I recently switched from Spotify to Tidal. Tidal sounds better on my car stereo and doesn’t have podcast/ebook crap that I don’t need. Tidal recommendations are almost as good as Spotify, but it’s improved a lot this year and it’s catching up. Tidal recommends a lot of music that’s in genres I normally wouldn’t explore but I end up liking many of them, while Spotify recommendations are completely locked into the genre of whatever track/playlist I’m listening to.
I tried Qobuz and Deezer too. Deezer Android app was unusable because it’s so outdated and poorly designed, while Qobuz recommendations were so bad that I’m convinced they recommend completely random tracks as opposed to using an algorithm.
