Apple Music vs. Spotify at Morton East
December 16, 2022
Students at Morton East High School prefer to listen to their music on Spotify rather than Apple Music.
According to Google, Spotify was first created on April 23rd, 2006, by Daniel EK and Martin Lorentzon two Swedish entrepreneurs. Spotify has over 456 million monthly active users. On another hand, Apple Music was created June 30th, 2015, by Apple Inc. It’s available to over 165 different countries all over the Middle East, The Americas, Asia, Europe, Oceania, and parts of Africa. Apple Music allows users to choose a family plan for 16.99 a month and, allows up to 6 users or you can choose a singular plan for 10.99 a month. Also, give college students a plan for 5.99 a month including apple tv. In a survey of 100 people 45, Morton east students use Apple Music while 55 students use Spotify.
“I use Spotify to listen to my music and I like it better because has better user preferences, and it works better to my accommodations.” Morton East Junior Carlos Tafoya said.
Whether people used Apple Music or Spotify, in a survey the top three artists were Bad Bunny at number 1 Grupo Arriesgado at number 2, and Drake at number 3
“My top album was ‘Un Verano Sin Ti’ by Bad Bunny, I listened to this album a lot because I like the melodies of it and Bad Bunny is a dog,” Morton East Senior Brandon Flores said.
According to the 45, apple music users from Morton east 9 of them listened to more than 20,000 minutes (about 2 weeks) of music for the whole year of 2022.
“I know most people listen to music for the majority of their day which makes their total minutes a high number but this year I only listened to about 25,000 minutes of music,” Morton East Junior Elias Salto said.

FRANKFOTHER- my preference is Spotify because I don’t use apple music because you have to pay to listen to the songs you like and I personally don’t like that and with Spotify you can listen to songs for free.

FRANKFOTHER. I personally prefer Spotify as a person who uses apple music I like using spotify music because the music is still free the only thing you have to pay is if you get Spotify premium while apple music you still have to pay just to listen to music. – Dayanara

O’Malley- I agree with the 55 students who use Spotify rather than Apple Music. Spotify has always been better than Apple Music, in my eyes, because of its better music recommendations. It also has a more of an affordable price for its individual subscriptions. Adding on to how Spotify is better, it also has a whole section for different moods. These playlist are set for the specific type of genres you listen too.

O’Malley- I have Spotify I prefer it over Apple Music because has better user preferences and I like the albums/songs it recommends to me. and The premium version of Spotify costs $9.99 per month, making it more affordable than Apple Music’s individual plan, which costs $10.99 per month.

I concur with the survey’s findings because, even though I use Apple Music, I think Spotify has a superior user interface. For instance, the primary advantage that Spotify has over Apple Music is that they compile your statistics annually, Additionally, rather of merely adding sounds to an endless library, Spotify has the ability to like them. Although my family plan is a great deal, which is the main reason I choose Apple, Spotify is just a superior app.

O’Malley I agree with the survey results because I use Spotify I’ve never use apple music. For a matter of fact apple music and Spotify have the same plans they both have the family plan for 16.99. Additionally Spotify gives there members access to audiobooks and podcasts, which apple music does not support audiobooks, also they support more platforms.

O’Malley – I Agree that Spotify is a more sorted platform for music, even though the prices of their premium are the same it has more options for music. For example, the biggest benefit of Spotify is having playlist recommended to you of genres you listen to. It gives you music that is near your style of music. Not only that but Spotify has a personally DJ, which helps you play music that’s in your mood of the day, the DJ has an option to skip a genre so that you can find your mood.

Genge – I agree with the survey results, as while I use Apple Music, I feel Spotify does have a better UI. For example, the biggest benefit Spotify has over Apple Music is the fact that every year they do a recap of your stats, which Apple does not have to the same extent. Additionally, Spotify is able to like sounds, rather than just add them to an unending library. I use Apple mostly due to the family plan I have, which is a good deal, but Spotify is simply the better app.
