Hey Everyone: For years and years now, I have happily and contentedly purchased music from ITunes, and played it on my phone or PC and also had it stored in the cloud with I-Cloud. I like to keep up with new technology and trends though, (it makes me feel younger to do this) and these streaming services such as Spotify and Beats seem to be the new way to go. I was wondering which everyone prefers: Spotify or Beats. What are the differences/advantages/disadvantages between the two services? I have looked at both. I'm still on the fence about paying $10 a month just to stream music. However, with Beats you can pay per year. I wouldn't mind the idea of paying per year and streaming. Does Beats provide off-line listening for if I were on a plane or something? Do they provide playlists like Spotify does? With spotify, can you pay per year or just monthly? And, last but not least, the biggest thing I feel that keeps me from paying for either of these services is they both seem to be inaccessible on the PC. I have signed up for free trials with both of them (my spotify one has since run out) and I was kind of hoping since Beats is from Apple they would be fully accessible but it seems both on the Iphone app and on the PC Beats is inaccessible. With spotify it seems the app is accessible but not on the PC. For those of you who use these services, what do you do when you want to listen to your music on the PC? A lot of times I want to listen to music on my PC rather than my phone. Should I hold off on paying for either of these services until they become fully accessible on both the app and the PC? Thanks, Kerri
