Krusty, the league (and fans) much, much prefer soccer-specific places and indoor grass is just starting to be a thing - zork Jan 28, 08:45 2

More on music streaming services... recommend one for me (info and preferences inside) - Dano Jan 28, 08:35 20
- So far I'm leaning toward Amazon Unlimited (I know, but I already have Prime and they seem to pay artists well) or Tidal -- nm - Dano Jan 28, 09:09 4
  - I suppose I can do a free trial of both and see which one I prefer. -- nm - Dano Jan 28, 09:24
  - I use Amazon Unlimited. I like it a lot. I haven't really used it to find new artists, but I think Spotify is probably best for that. Their - pmb Jan 28, 09:17 2
    - Spotify is dead to me. -- nm - Spawn Jan 28, 09:27 1

  - On the free tier can you pick songs or is it like Spotify? -- nm - spamlet Jan 28, 08:58 2
    - I think you can pick songs but I'm not sure as it's US only right now and I can't look it up. -- nm - Reagen Jan 28, 09:40 1
      - Thanks. I’ll give it a try -- nm - spamlet Jan 28, 09:52
- Deezer. They give significantly more money to artists in line with streams, have a very good library, offline playlists.$15/mo for 6 accounts. - colin Jan 28, 08:46
- I've moved over to Apple Music, and I've been pleasantly surprised that it has stuff from my more indie friends. - Dark Callisto Jan 28, 08:44 7
  - I kind of want to switch but have a large iTunes collection with..ahem rarities. - spamlet Jan 28, 08:54
  - (This was a handy little article that tested what the services give to artists.) -- (link) - Dark Callisto Jan 28, 08:49 5
    - Interesting. I've mentioned before, but not listed is the surprising service with the highest pay rate. Peloton. - pmb Jan 28, 09:15 3
      - Oooh, good call. I have free Peloton through work, so please let us know when she's streaming! -- nm - Dark Callisto Jan 28, 09:36
      - Definitely give a shout out when any of her songs are part of a class. -- nm - Dano Jan 28, 09:21 1
        
        Absolutely will. It's a longshot, but I'm hoping. -- nm - pmb Jan 28, 09:45
    - Thanks for this. That will definitely be a factor. -- nm - Dano Jan 28, 09:04
