I was on Youtube Music for YEARS, finally made the switch to Tidal and I feel like a much more refined now.
Although Youtube did have some niche gems I'll miss

What music subscription service are you using?
- Thread starter sswilson
- Start date
Actually gave in and got Spotify premium, for just a couple key reasons:
- BAN Specific artists!!! Ffs I needed this. I kept getting a "collab" song between an artist I like... and a rapper. A rapper whose Only words at the beginning of their collaboration song is B*tch. F-ing obnoxious. Happily listening to that artist then, next track: b*tch b*tch b*tch. Ugh.
- Lossless audio streaming is great.
- AI track shuffling is pretty decent too, giving a mix of my liked songs along with nice additional new tracks. Like a discovery queue and my favorites all mixed together.

I'm still on YouTube Music, but because it is included in my YouTube Premium and having premium access to YouTube videos is still the driver for that. YouTube Music has been good enough for the music I've wanted to listen too. Haven't found anything yet I couldn't access there.
I also have Amazon Music I think through Prime? But I've never even tried to access it.

Same here
Yes there is a basic version of amazon music included with prime, but it's got a much smaller catalogue when compared to their paid "upgrade" tier.
Lossless is the way to go, I believe YT music tops-out at 320kbps.
Currently running my ras pi 4 into my amp via USB, lossless over wifi into some old school JBL L5's. Spent a day just playing with EQ until I was in audio Nirvana!
I run a little class D amp + Wharefdale Diamond 220's for my desk setup and gosh does it ever make a difference there too, even with the lower quality amp.
I was in the same boat!
But have you considered spending $1000's of dollars on audio equipment so you feel as if you have to upgrade to a service that offers lossless, just to justify your addiction to speakers?
Because I have...please send help
