Best Music Apps
Today finding music is easier than ever. Before smartphones, we needed vinyl records, CD players, or cassette players to listen to music. It took many days to grab an album after its release. Thanks to modern technology, today, we can reach the latest released music from anywhere instantly and have a library of high-quality of worldwide music at our fingertips. Some of the best music apps have done all this hard work.

The app runs in both free and premium versions. The free version gives you access to the songs in 160 kbit/s while you are online. Premium features allow listening offline and download high-quality music (360 kbit/s). The monthly subscription pack starts at $9.99.
Apple Music
Tech giant Apple developed apple music for their Iphones and Ios users. Like Spotify, Apple Music also has huge songs and playlists but more enriched music contents with music videos. It also has three live 24-hour radio stations. Except for a free six month trial for new subscribers, Apple Music is not free at all. The monthly subscription fee starts from $9.99.

YouTube Music is a music streaming app developed by YouTube. The app allows users to browse through songs and videos on YouTube.

The tracks you buy, 80-85% of the money, go directly to the track's creator. The app itself is free to download. But you have to buy tracks to stream and download.
