Meanwhile, my Release Radar playlist has about 30% songs that are unavailable and the home screen is full of recommendations for podcasts I don't care about.

Can anyone recommend a good alternative? Preferably with a decent selection of obscure metal. I'd like to try some other paid sevices before reverting to piracy.

I went to Apple Music already back when Spotify decided to give Rogan their platform and the millions of dollars. Can't say I regret it.
Apple music is no better, but I went this route too.
Apple Music would probably have the largest library of Metal music owing to its MOG lineage (via Beats Music).
Doesn't Apple Music require Apple devices? :/
I don’t actually use it, but my understanding is that it doesn’t. There’s an Android app, at the very least.

I just know that MOG’s selling point for a long while was it’s huge metal library and license set; I see no reason for that to have been lost through its MOG->Beats->Apple Music transition.

Alright, I'll have to give it a try. Thanks for the tip!
