[MusicTlk] which is the best program?

Fri Aug 24 17:16:57 UTC 2018

I like Apple Music a lot.  It's accessible, portable, and you can
create playlists!  And I do like the option of sharing music through
Apple Music.  It's so easy.

I also use Amazon Music, and it's ok.  But it's pretty much only fully
accessible through Alexa, and Alexa isn't always helpful in finding
what you want.  Also, I haven't figured out how to create your own
playlists with Alexa.  It might not even be possible.  With Apple
Music, you can ask the phone to find music, and if that doesn't work,
you can search for it manually, which is lovely.

I also love Pandora, but it's not fully accessible with VO, so I
wouldn't pay for the premium version.

Just my thoughts...
