Which online music service is best?
Questions & Answers
The streaming online music services are, quite simply, all very similar. They all offer access to similar (but not quite the same) song libraries, they all offer streaming music you can listen to from any PC and they all offer "To Go" options for mobile devices for a few dollars over their basic rates.
By the way, if you have a compatible mobile device, the extra few dollars for the "To Go" option is a great value.
You can take a look at our side by side comparison of the services here.
What it really comes down to then is one of three things:
- Any of the specific features that move you to one of the services
- How you feel about each of the software interfaces
- The service price
This software is what you will be interacting with whenever you using their services, so it is important that the software gets along with both you and your computer. Everyone's computer set up and usage is different, so you need to see what works well for you.
In terms of price, they are all solid values for any music fan, but Yahoo is the leader right now, especially if you go with their annual subscription plan.
Real Rhapsody has the longest feature list, which may or may not be very important to you.
Actually using the services is the only way you are going to be able to know for sure which you like best.
Thankfully, all of these services offer free trials right now.
You can find more information on each service using the review links to the left, or else you can go directly to their websites using the free trial links below.
