Choosing the right music streaming service can feel overwhelming given the many options vying for your attention. Spotify and YouTube Music are two of the biggest players, boasting massive libraries of over 100 million songs each and offering similar plans, from free ad-supported versions to premium tiers with extra perks. But which one comes out on top?
Spotify has earned its place as the world’s most popular music streaming service, and for good reason. It provides a polished user experience, boasts a vast music catalog, and offers additional content like podcasts and audiobooks. Spotify also edges out YouTube Music in regard to audio quality by delivering a slightly richer listening experience, although neither have yet to offer their music streams in hi-resolution or lossless quality.
YouTube Music, on the other hand, is deeply integrated with Google’s ecosystem. This is a major advantage for users already invested in Google services, as it allows for seamless transitions between apps and devices. Imagine effortlessly switching from listening to music on your phone to your Google Home speaker. Plus, YouTube Music leverages its video platform to offer a unique advantage: access to music videos, live performances, and rare remixes you won’t find anywhere else.
While Spotify might seem the obvious choice, YouTube Music offers compelling features that make it a serious contender. To make the best decision for your needs, it’s crucial to delve deeper into each platform’s specifics while considering factors like music discovery features, user interface, social sharing capabilities, and offline listening options.
Launched in 2008, Spotify has had some time to get good at building a friendly user interface, and it continues to be one of the best. Spotify is available in various ways, including via a web browser and through mobile and desktop apps for iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Linux, and Kindle. It’s harder to think of ways Spotify can’t be accessed. It’s compatible with many smartwatches and network speakers like Sonos, available in the car via CarPlay and Android Auto, on gaming consoles, smart TVs, and streaming devices such as Apple TV and Roku.
The UI has changed several times and continues to do so. But at its core, it’s separated into three main areas. Home is the hub of everything, with tabs for music, podcasts, and audiobooks. Its scrolling design combines recently played songs with suggested mixes and new releases (more below). Here, you can also access features such as Spotify’s new AI radio station-like feature called DJ and its new TikTok/Instagram-like interface that brings in animated album artwork, video clips, previews of songs, playlists, podcasts, and more in an excellent visual way. Your library organizes all your created, saved, and downloaded playlists, songs, albums, artists, podcasts, and more. Lastly, search is just that: a search field for finding what you’re looking for, but it also lists your recent searches, which is handy for going back to.
The Spotify interface’s web and desktop versions are similar. Since the YouTube Music app has no desktop version (just the web player), the Spotify app is superior if the desktop is your main usage point.
YouTube Music’s UI is similar to Spotify’s in that it is well-designed, visually appealing, and utilizes a scrolling architecture. While YouTube Music can be accessed in several ways, it’s not quite as broad as Spotify, but it still casts a wide net. Tied into a user’s Google account, the dedicated YouTube Music app is available for iOS and Android devices (including CarPlay and Android Auto), compatible smartwatches, Sonos speakers, and Chromecast. Its web player can be accessed through any browser or the smart TV YouTube app. You can also cast the web player to other compatible devices from the web player or apps for another level of convenience.
Whether you’re using YouTube Music’s app or the web player, the UI is broken into several main sections, just like Spotify. Along the bottom (or top in a web browser), you’ll find the Home section, an array of usage-based content, including your top artists, mixes, radio streams, playlists, new releases, trending music, and more. Explore is a more focused section of new releases, charts, and trending songs that you can parse out by mood and genre if desired. Like in Spotify, the library is where all your playlists and liked songs, albums, and artists can be found. There’s also a search magnifying glass icon up top, where you’ll find your familiar Google user and cast icons.
Spotify and YouTube Music have very similar UI designs and offer many of the same organization and discovery tools. However, with Spotify, you feel like the well is much deeper, as the app gives you seemingly endless suggestions and categorizations in more visually appealing and creative ways. Plus, it nudges ahead of YouTube Music with slightly more connectivity options.
Today, many music streaming services offer vast music libraries with over 100 million tracks, including Spotify and YouTube Music. Therefore, the number of tracks is no longer a key deciding factor when choosing between these services. Let’s examine other aspects that differentiate them.
Spotify’s vast library is just the beginning of its offerings. With over five million titles in its podcast library, it has become a leader in the realm, and it now offers audiobooks as well.
However, Spotify excels in the numerous ways users can find and discover its content. It has pioneered many of these features. The “Made for [your name here]” category is a constantly changing space for users who prefer to let the algorithm do the work. Playlists like Discover Weekly, Daily Mixes, and Release Radar are go-to’s when you don’t have a particular album or artist in mind. You can also find endless mixes, playlists, and radio station recommendations that are auto-generated based on your most listened-to genres, moods, and artists. New episodes of your favorite podcasts and audiobooks are front and center.
In the Search section, you can browse through categories such as “Made for You,” “Spotify Classics,” “Live Events,” “Charts,” and “Decades.” Like TikTok and Instagram stories, you can also scroll through videos and music previews. Spotify frequently adds discovery features, although some of them are hit-and-miss, such as the AI DJ feature that creates a radio station hosted by an AI version of Xavier “X” Jernigan.

However, it’s nice that Spotify always adds new things. Smart Shuffle and Daylists are relatively new features. Smart Shuffle optimizes song order, while Daylists offer a constantly refreshing feed of music recommendations. Additionally, it just brought its new AI Playlist creation feature to the U.S. and Canada in September, 2024, allowing you to use text prompts to create playlists. This is just a fraction of what you can find on the platform.
YouTube Music’s library is just as vast as Spotify’s, with almost everything you can think of at your fingertips. And while it’s not doing the audiobook thing yet, just last year, the service started adding podcasts to the platform’s home screen for U.S. users only now. But how does YouTube Music stack up against Spotify in terms of finding things to play? Like every streaming service, the more you use it, the more it learns your tastes and makes better suggestions.
And while the Home section does deliver some great generated playlists like its ever-evolving Discover Mix, the excellent My Super Mix, a New Release Mix, and a load of “Similar To” lists based on artists you might like, it’s just not as vast as Spotify’s. The Explore section does a decent job at offering up new albums and singles, trending tracks, and mood and genre-based music, and the integration of YouTube videos adds a unique element. But overall, it’s hard to compete with Spotify’s experience with discovery — it just feels like you’re getting more, especially when you consider they’re priced almost the same.
Spotify and YouTube Music share many of the same basic features and functions, including everything from how you play, pause, shuffle, and skip tracks to adding things to your library and liking things to help organize what you’re listening to. Both services even offer lyrics when available and easily connect to speakers and devices in your home. The play window is more or less the same, displaying album art and very similar options in the dropdown menus, including the ability to download (more on premium tiers in a bit), share, launch “radio” stations based on your selection, view the artist or album, create playlists, and more. Spotify does offer the option of creating collaborative playlists with friends, and even though YouTube Music does offer its year-end Recap, it pales in comparison to the frivolity of Spotify’s highly anticipated Wrapped event. Still, we don’t think that’s a deal breaker. Functionally, both Spotify and YouTube Music are very similar.
We’ve pitted Spotify and YouTube Music against each other for many reasons. Still, one of the main ones is that they are among the only music streaming services that have yet to offer an option or plan tier for lossless or high-resolution (hi-res) formats like competitors such as Tidal, Apple Music, and Amazon Music Unlimited do. Spotify has long teased a hi-fi option but has yet to deliver, and so far, YouTube Music hasn’t mentioned it. In the meantime, these two services remain very similar in their sound quality offerings.
Technically speaking, Spotify offers better sound quality than YouTube Music. For their free versions, YouTube Music’s maximum streaming quality is 128kbp, while Spotify’s is 160kbps (it maxes out at 128kbps if using the web player).
Graduating to the premium tiers of both services, if playing Spotify Premium in the browser with the web player, you get 256kbps. Using Spotify’s apps, you get a range from 24kbps to its peak at 320kbps. YouTube Music Premium is the same no matter where it’s played, ranging from 48kbps to its peak at 256kbps.

So, which one is better? On paper, Spotify. But unless you’re an audiophile (in which case you’s be considering a service like Tidal or Qobuz), most people wouldn’t be able to tell the difference or wouldn’t care. Spotify wins on a technicality.
This brings us to the exciting conclusion: price. To start, both Spotify and YouTube Music offer free tiers of their services that give you access to their entire libraries. Still, you’ll have to contend with ads popping up between songs, and you can’t download anything for offline listening. Spotify’s free tier only lets you listen to music on shuffle, except for certain playlists, and you can only skip six tracks per hour. Spotify has a range of premium plans that unlock all of these restrictions, allowing for downloads, doing away with the ads, and letting you have the whole experience.
Spotify’s Premium plans include:
Individual: $12 per month
Duo: $17 per month (good for couples or two people in the same household)
Family: $20 per month (for up to 6 accounts)
Student: $6 per month
YouTube Music free lets you skip tracks as many times as you like after 5 seconds, but the ads are arguably worse and more intrusive than on Spotify. Happily, though, the YouTube Music app now lets you play music in the background when your lock screen is active or when you’re using other apps, a feature that wasn’t possible before. Upgrading to YouTube Music Premium, as with Spotify, removes all the ads, allows downloads, and gives you full-service features. Plans include:
Individual: $11 per month (or $3 more per month with a YouTube Premium membership)
Family: $17 per month (or $6 more per month with a YouTube Premium membership)
Student: $5.50 per month (or $2.50 more per month with a YouTube Premium membership)
Spotify and YouTube Music are pretty equally matched in their pricing, with their Individual plans coming in at under just over $10. So, we’re calling this one a tie because while Spotify offers an additional convenient Duo tier for that demographic, YouTube Premium customers get to leverage their memberships to get a great add-on, which is something Spotify can’t offer.
Spotify is the world’s most popular music streaming service, with over 600 million users, 236 million of whom are paying subscribers. While YouTube Music and YouTube Premium have over 100 million subscribers, a good number, it is still not enough to beat Spotify’s beautifully designed big green wall of music discovery, podcasts, and new features.
Although YouTube Music and Spotify have comparable library sizes and music quality, Spotify’s experience is more refined and offers more extras for the same price. If you are already a YouTube Premium subscriber, adding music for a few extra dollars is a good idea. However, if you do not care about the flashier UI or podcasts, YouTube Music might be more suitable for you.

H2O.ai, a provider of open-source AI platforms, announced today two new vision-language models designed to improve document analysis and optical character recognition (OCR) tasks.
The models, named H2OVL Mississippi-2B and H2OVL-Mississippi-0.8B, show competitive performance against much larger models from major tech companies, potentially offering a more efficient solution for businesses dealing with document-heavy workflows.
David vs. Goliath: How H2O.ai’s tiny models are outsmarting tech giants
The H2OVL Mississippi-0.8B model, with only 800 million parameters, surpassed all other models, including those with billions more parameters, on the OCRBench Text Recognition task. Meanwhile, the 2-billion parameter H2OVL Mississippi-2B model demonstrated strong general performance across a range of vision-language benchmarks.

“We’ve designed H2OVL Mississippi models to be a high-performance yet cost-effective solution, bringing AI-powered OCR, visual understanding, and Document AI to businesses,” Sri Ambati, CEO and Founder of H2O.ai said in an exclusive interview with VentureBeat. “By combining advanced multimodal AI with efficiency, H2OVL Mississippi delivers precise, scalable Document AI solutions across a range of industries.”
The release of these models marks a significant step in H2O.ai’s strategy to make AI technology more accessible. By making the models freely available on Hugging Face, a popular platform for sharing machine learning models, H2O.ai is allowing developers and businesses to modify and adapt the models for specific document AI needs.
Efficiency meets effectiveness: A new approach to document processing
Ambati highlighted the economic advantages of smaller, specialized models. “Our approach to generative pre-trained transformers stems from our deep investment in Document AI, where we collaborate with customers to extract meaning from enterprise documents,” he said. “These models can run anywhere, on a small footprint, efficiently and sustainably, allowing fine-tuning on domain-specific images and documents at a fraction of the cost.”
The announcement comes as businesses seek more efficient ways to process and extract information from large volumes of documents. Traditional OCR and document analysis methods often struggle with poor-quality scans, challenging handwriting, or heavily modified documents. H2O.ai’s new models aim to address these issues while offering a more resource-efficient alternative to larger language models that may be excessive for specific document-related tasks.
Industry analysts note that H2O.ai’s approach could disrupt the current landscape dominated by tech giants. By focusing on smaller, more specialized models, H2O.ai may be able to capture a significant portion of the enterprise market that values efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Open source and enterprise-ready: H2O.ai’s strategy for AI adoption
“At H2O.ai, making AI accessible isn’t just an idea. It’s a movement,” Ambati told VentureBeat. “By releasing a series of small foundational models that can be easily fine-tuned to specific tasks, we are expanding the possibilities for creating and using AI.”
H2O.ai has raised $256 million from investors including Commonwealth Bank, Nvidia, Goldman Sachs, and Wells Fargo. The company’s open-source approach and focus on practical, enterprise-ready AI solutions have helped it build a community of over 20,000 organizations and more than half of the Fortune 500 companies as customers.
As businesses continue to grapple with digital transformation and the need to extract value from unstructured data, H2O.ai’s new vision-language models could provide a compelling option for those looking to implement document AI solutions without the computational overhead of larger models. The true test will be in real-world applications, but H2O.ai’s demonstration of competitive performance with much smaller models suggests a promising direction for the future of enterprise AI.

Amy Wu, founder of the AI-based mental health app Manifest, has a bold prediction for the next wave of tech.
“Separately from the AI trend, I think so many people are seeing this loneliness epidemic that’s happening with Gen Z,” she said. “There is no doubt in my mind that there will be unicorns that emerge from those categories to address the loneliness epidemic.”
Manifest isn’t quite a unicorn yet — it’s only in its seed stage, having just raised $3.4 million from a16z Speedrun and a number of other investors. But Wu sees her company as part of a new crop of products trying to mitigate a rise in loneliness.
Wu is in her late twenties, right on the cusp of the murky boundary between millennials and Gen Z, but she understands the struggles of the younger generation. A report from Cigna found that three out of five adults report that they sometimes or always feel lonely; that number is even higher among respondents aged 18-22, at 73%. Manifest is the app she wishes she had when she was an undergraduate at Stanford, navigating a competitive, intimidating environment while living on her own for the first time.

“I really felt like the real world punched me in the face,” Wu told TechCrunch. “I feel like school teaches you all these things around, here’s how to get a job at Facebook, or Google, or Microsoft, or Goldman Sachs, but it doesn’t teach you how to go build your own emotional toolkit.”
When you open the Manifest app, you’ll see a pastel gradient orb in the center of the screen. You can hold the button to talk, or tap it to type, in response to a number of prompts: “What’s on your mind?,” “What are you worried about?,” or “What would be useful for us to talk about?”
Then, the app’s AI will mirror your language and turn it into an affirmation, which you can turn into a personalized audio meditation.
For example, if you tell the app that you’re finding it hard to be proud of yourself after running a 5K because you got last place in your age group (totally not pulling from personal experience…!), it will spit out a couple of affirmations, like, “I strive to appreciate my progress, no matter how small,” or, “I trust that my commitment to this process will lead to growth in both my physical and mental health.”
Maybe those words of AI-generated wisdom help. Maybe they don’t. But Manifest isn’t meant to be an end-all-be-all mental health solution or a replacement for actual mental health treatment. Instead, Manifest is designed to be something that you can use for a few minutes every day to feel just a little bit more grounded.

“We are a wellness app that’s really kind of designed to meet Gen Z where they’re already at,” Wu said. “The real core thesis behind Manifest was like, can we make these bite-sized interactions with wellness super easy and super delightful, where it doesn’t feel like a chore to go do Manifest?”
In a time when young people are overwhelmed by the constant noise of social media, it may seem counterintuitive to use technology — let alone something that can feel as impersonal and amorphous as AI — to address loneliness. But Wu thinks that if Gen Z is already sucked into their phones, then wellness needs to happen there, too.
“Gen Z is hanging out way less in person,” she said. “So it’s like, what do you give a generation that we’ve already done this to? Like, the idea that you tell that person to go outside and hang with their friend is an astronomical leap for them, so how do you go and give them something where they’re already at?”
Manifest launched in stealth this summer, and so far, users have generated 18.7 million “manifestations” in the app.
As with any app of its nature, Manifest has to navigate the ethical challenges around making a consumer mental health product with no medical backing. Wu said that there are safeguards embedded in Manifest’s AI, such as redirecting users to a suicide hotline if they mention self-harm. There are some topics like this that Manifest will decline to engage with.

From a risk standpoint, this could be a smart move for Manifest — it’s dangerous to leverage an experimental AI as a tool to help with something as serious as preventing self-harm. But other startups battling loneliness, like chatbot company Nomi AI, take a different approach. When Nomi AI users open up about thoughts of self-harm, the AI companions won’t halt the conversation — instead, they will try to de-escalate the situation by talking the user through their feelings.
Alex Cardinell, the founder of Nomi AI, argues that just stopping a conversation and providing a suicide hotline number could be alienating to someone who’s struggling for connection.
“I want to make those users feel heard in whatever their dark moment is, because that’s how you get someone to open up, how you get someone to reconsider their way of thinking,” Cardinell told TechCrunch in a recent conversation. “I really want to look at what’s aligned with the user, rather than what’s aligned with the strictest attorney’s loss mitigation strategy.”
Wu doesn’t think that Manifest, or any consumer app, is where people should go if they are in a situation where they need legitimate medical help. But young people are turning to these tools when seeking real medical care isn’t accessible. So, if Wu is right about the impending unicorn startups that will combat the loneliness epidemic, those companies — and Manifest — will need to tread thoughtfully.

Amazon wants Prime Video to be the place you watch coverage of election night. The company announced today that it will be streaming a live election night special on Prime Video hosted by former NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams. The show will kick off on November 5th at 5PM ET.
“Brian Williams will be joined live by guests including prominent contributors across news and traditional media, representing a range of backgrounds and perspectives, to share real-time poll results and commentary while also referencing third-party news sources across all political affiliations,” Amazon writes in a blog post. The company adds that it will be an “informative, accessible and non-partisan presentation.” Amazon will announce the guests in “the coming weeks.”
The show and Williams’ involvement were rumored to be in the works last month.
This election night special is just the latest live programming from Amazon on Prime Video. The company has aired live Thursday Night Football NFL games since 2022, and it will be getting a lot of NBA games starting in 2025.
Apple’s celebrating ten years of Apple Pay today, and it’s clear that the Cupertino-based giant is pretty pleased with its payment offerings. I’ll be the first to admit that Apple Pay is still handy and convenient ten years down the road; most of the time, rather than reaching for a physical card, I simply double-tap the power button on my iPhone and pay.
Plenty more card partners have arrived in the years since the original launch, and more retailers have been adopting the standard. Alongside teasing future updates, Apple is rolling out two fresh ways to pay using Apple Pay.
You’ll now be able to check out with Apple Pay and redeem rewards from eligible cards – like miles or points from Discover credit cards in the US – as well as access installment loans from Affirm in the US and Monzo Flex in the UK, and flexible payment options from Klarna in the US and UK.
Pay with rewards or two new payment options
Available now with iOS 18 for folks in the United States on an iPhone or iPad, you’ll now be able to select rewards like points (think cashback) or miles from eligible Discover Cards to pay for the whole amount or a portion at checkout. Apple’s integrated this option directly on the checkout screen – which takes up a portion of the bottom of your device – and it feels pretty intuitive. It will, by default, show you the maximum amount you can redeem, and by tapping on it, you can adjust the amount.

Even neater, though, and solving just a sliver of the puzzle that is airline mile worth, it will even give you the conversion of what one mile equals to dollars. That’s pretty handy. This experience of using card rewards at checkout in Apple Pay is just starting with select Discover cards now, but more partners will roll out in the future. Apple confirmed that select Synchrony, Fiserv, and FIS cards in the United States and DBS in Singapore will let you use rewards.
Beyond rewards, though, Apple is adding two new payment options and the first of which can be seen as the partner successor to Apple’s since closed down Apple Pay Later. First, Klarna’s flexible payment options are now available for folks checking out on Apple Pay — with iPhone and iPad, online and in app – in the United States and the United Kingdom. Allowing you to select the service as a payment option, get approved, and pick a plan for splitting the payment. It’s worth noting you won’t see the charges hit weekly or bi-weekly (each payment option differs), and you’ll need to visit the Klarna app for those.
Second, installment loan payment options are arriving with iOS 18 as well. In the United States, these are done through Affirm, while in the United Kingdom, these are done through Monzo. With these you’ll get approved for the loan, can pick terms – and see which have interest associated – and then complete the checkout process. This is a pretty big step and a direct replacement for Apple’s own “Apple Pay Later” installment plans. It will also be expanding at some point in the future to several other countries, including ANZ in Australia and CaixaBank in Spain.

As a whole these new ways to pay, and fresh partners, reinvigorate the Apple Pay experience a bit. It’s also key that it doesn’t change the ease of use that makes Apple Pay a stellar service and function of Apple’s myriad devices. I think the addition of rewards – for points and miles – in the Apple Pay checkout process will be very handy and will let many make better use of points, similar to how you can check out with points on Amazon. However, they might drain faster.
NASA’s Perseverance rover is in the middle of a months-long journey up the rim of Jezero Crater on Mars, and on Thursday it beamed back a status update.
The vehicle started the climb in August in what’s considered to be the most ambitious and arduous phase of Perseverance’s mission since arriving at the red planet in early 2021.
“My journey to the rim of Jezero Crater has been a challenging one,” the rover said in a post on its social media account overseen by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, which is conducting the Mars mission. “As you can see in this image from my rear Hazcam, I’m dealing with some steep and slippery terrain. But thanks to my team and autonomous navigation system, I’m avoiding any big hazards as I slowly make my way up.”
The image, below, shows one of the rover’s six wheels and the tracks left by them as Perseverance performs its climb.

— NASA's Perseverance Mars Rover (@NASAPersevere) October 17, 2024
In an earlier post, Perseverance said it has a few spots to explore on its way to the top, adding that the JPL team was most excited about an area over the crest and outside the crater called Witch Hazel Hill, which includes the most ancient martian crust that the rover is likely to encounter on its journey.
To get there, Perseverance is tackling slopes of up to 23 degrees and which rise around 1,000 feet (305 meters).
Perseverance has spent pretty much all of the last three-and-a-half years exploring the floor of Jezero Crater, as well as the site of an ancient river delta. NASA selected this area for the mission as it was once a huge lake that may have contained microbial life. Perseverance has been collecting cores of rock from this location for later analysis that could reveal if life ever existed on the faraway planet.
Social apps can be very useful for staying in touch and sharing moments with your contacts. However, they can also be dangerous, especially for teenagers, as they facilitate direct contact with bad actors. Meta has announced a series of safety features aimed at teens on Instagram. The changes aim to address cases of sextortion.
Sextortion is a form of blackmail under the threat of sharing intimate photos with your contacts or posting them publicly. The perpetrators can demand large sums of money to not publish such content or even other things. Teenagers are currently the most vulnerable to this type of attack due to the nature of social networks.
Instagram’s new safety features against sextortion on teen accounts
Now, Meta has announced some changes that seek to even prevent “potentially scammy” profiles from contacting more potential victims via Instagram. Firstly, users’ main inboxes will hide or even completely block message requests from such accounts. In addition, accounts belonging to teenagers (up to 16 years old) will not be able to exchange messages with anyone they do not already follow.
Instagram will also display a warning to teens when they receive a message from a suspicious account. Accounts tagged as “potentially scammy” by Instagram will not be able to access the list of followers or people tagged in photos of teen accounts. This will prevent them from being able to access a list of new potential victims.

There are no more specific details on how Instagram determines that an account is “potentially scammy.” However, some factors the system considers are the age of the account, contacts in common with a particular profile, or the country of origin of the account.
Security shields integrated into DMs too
If bad actors manage to bypass those safety features, Instagram still has built-in tools on DMs for teen accounts. The temporary messaging feature will prevent screenshots or screen recordings for photos or videos. These types of images will also not be available on Instagram web. There is also a tool that detects photos with nudity in DMs and automatically blurs them.
Meta has recently been making additional efforts to ensure the safety of teenagers on the platform. The company is in the crosshairs of US authorities for potential harm to young people’s mental health. So, it must try to gain the trust of the public and state representatives.
