> _Nothing separates Spotify from Apple Music._

Does Apple Music have something similar (or as good as) Spotify Discover? That's a differentiator for sure.

I think Apple Music is good for discovery. Probably not as good, but for many of us it hits the "good enough" mark. I confess I'm an Apple Music subscriber mostly because I'm just in that ecosystem, and it's relatively low effort; I'm also a Tidal subscriber because it was the only service integrated with Roon (a music server package I use), although I'm still debating that one.
Something similar. Yes. I’ve heard that it wasn’t as good. But is that something you would want to base your company on?

It’s just like Facebook stopped the growth of Snapchat just by introducing Stories.

There are literally almost two decades of failures in the streaming subscription music space. Like Jobs said about DropBox. Streaming music is becoming a feature not a product.
