The only competitor that I've given a fair shot is Apple Music. I'm not thrilled with either. Between those two, Spotify wins solely for Spotify Connect. I much prefer the way it works to AirPlay.

I haven't really tried YouTube Music, but I'll give it a go. I've been meaning to try out Tidal too but haven't yet.

If you’ve a computer to run it on, I highly recommend trying Roon out as a superior alternative to Spotify connect.
What do you prefer about Roon?
They’re not increasing my subscription to give me stuff I never asked for.

On an actual technical side, I can stream to multiple devices concurrently, the interface is cleaner and it supports a local music library.

With youtube premium you get no ads on youtube and youtube music. Its a great deal.
