1.Spotify
Founded in 2008 in Sweden, Spotify has since then transformed the music streaming forever by providing access to more than 35 million songs for free. Spotify has grown into one of the world’s best music streaming apps and services with a community of over 180 million users that includes more than 83 million subscribers across 65 countries across the world. In February 2018, the company teamed up with Discord that allowed Discord desktop app users to publicly share the music they are listening to, and with Spotify’s Premium Service access, users can listen to each other’s music in real-time.
2.Apple Music
Apple, the global technology giant that manufacturers and markets iconic consumer electronics, cutting-edge computer software, and online services entered the booming music streaming market in 2015. Since then, Apple Music has stolen market share of several popular music streaming service providers with consistent updates and groundbreaking features. In 2016, Apple Music expanded into video content which attracted more users to the applications. With more than 50 million paying subscribers worldwide, Apple Music has surpassed the expectations and is likely to continue ruling the music streaming industry over the next several years.
