This is a $1 dollar increase from what I was paying. But soon subscribers will be $15/month, then $20/month. I wonder how much of deezer's income actually goes to the artists.

According to Max, Deezer pays more per play but Deezer has less users than Spotify.

Deezer has a smaller catalog, as far as I'm aware. Tried switching, but it's hard when I have 700 liked songs on Spotify and only a fraction available on Deezer. Liked everything else about them though.

You can upload mp3s on deezer (website, but once you're uploaded them you can Listen to them and download them in the app). So if there's something particular that's missing and you have a mp3, you can add it. I've personally never had problems to find things on deezer, but I've been using it a lot and it definitely shaped my taste.

The article I read mentioned Deezer had a larger library. Maybe they are missing your favorites. I am impartial as I don't use either service.

lol I have more than 5k songs on YT Music, I think their catalog is even bigger than Spotify's
