I think that the main issue on Spotify is the algorithm... CZcams uses to show me new artists frequently and Spotify keep showing me the same songs and artists I listen and already know... They even put it on an artist's radio! It sucks lol I love finding out new artists.
Nah, Tidal takes the cake. Has the essential lossless CD audio quality that Mac demands and its UI is great. The only thing that is lacking at the moment is its library compared to other services.
agreed--i can give up Netflix or any of the other streaming platforms, but I need CZcams. I need it while I work, I need it to entertain my kid, I need it to learn shit--I need it.
@@Diakoidris Library is everything. Sexy UI won’t make it alone if there’s no music you looking for. On the other hand even the shittiest UI could be tolerable if only catalogue is broad enough for me to meet my needs. Any thoughts on that?
Spotify (which unlike Amazon Music and Apple Music has still not delivered its promise of CD-quality streams, via Spotify Hi-Fi) uses 320kbps Ogg Vorbis streams. The use of such lossy compression means data is lost in the encoding process, which in turn means resolution is sacrificed for the sake of convenience and smaller file sizes. This has an effect on the sound quality - those formats aren't telling the full story of our favourite songs. This might be fine when you're listening to Spotify playlists on your smartphone on the bus on the morning commute, but music fans should want better. This is where high-resolution audio comes in. To illustrate why it should sound better than MP3, for example, let’s compare the relative bitrates. The highest quality MP3 has a bitrate of 320kbps, whereas a 24-bit/192kHz file has a data rate of 9216kbps. Music CDs are 1411kbps. The hi-res 24-bit/96kHz or 24-bit/192kHz files should, therefore, more closely replicate the sound quality the musicians and engineers were working with in the studio. And they could be that very same recorded file, too. These files are labelled as "Studio Masters" in some cases.

Could listen to Mac talk all day!

Mac Is younger than me, but he’s got a nice grandpa vibe sometimes
I still think CZcams is superior to all those streaming platforms due to its DIY roots. It all starts here

I find it way easier to find new music on youtube. With Spotify I always get stuck on 5 songs

So many record uploads not on other platforms
Being subscribed on CZcams and skipping ads is worth it

I LOVE HIM
Mac's a doll!!! Even at 34.
CZcams music is way more superior in finding unknown artists and obscure music genres that nobody has heard before.
nah thats lowkey what soundcloud is for, but for stuff 20+ yrs ago ur right
exactly! i heared mac track on yt music only
Not to mention, youre paying for a cheaper service that includes yt premium benefits.
I agree. However using the app is atrocious and slow sometimes. I say this as a Spotify -> current YT music user
Hey Mack Apple Music works too
He was always right 👍
dzięki Wojtek :)
Somebody show Mac that iPods are still a thing. Keep one in your truck, constantly plugged in! It's great!
sure
Spotify does have hi-def, you just have to turn it on in settings because when you’re using cellular it defaults to regular sound quality.
Nah, the highest bitrate is still 320kb. This is much lower than what other major streaming services like Amazon, Tidal, qobuz, etc offer
High quality for Spotify is 320kb/s
Cd quality, which is also 'hidef' is 1411kb/s
it really is not stop lying

Has anyone told him about musi
Mac needs to be a guest on Kill Tony
They're finally adding flac support this year
mac old😢
Spotify is most rad because you can find user playlists.
A real modern music composer❤ so rare now!
Apple Music supremacy!!
What dies hé léans « deg option « ?
« Chuck it out of there ? »
Yeah CZcams has hundreds of remixes for each song people always begging for them to be added to Spotify
CD’s are superior
Spotify is crazy, too bad it doesn’t work in Russia anymore
He could have just used CZcams music. It's far better
Facts Apple Music sound quality is way better
True
I just fw apple music that shit was poppin in HS only until like late 2017 spotify came in..
ALEXAAAAAAAA!!!!
Bueno y si tu compa anda jungiano cual es el pedo???
Mans is using Siri and Bummed he has to use Spotify? :S 😂
that's why tidal exists
Qobuz is better.
320kb/s is good enough, hifi is placebo in most cases.
False. Get some real hifi speakers, and they will show you the difference more clearly.
When you gonna make good music again?
the most gen x millenial
Wish he wouldn’t write off the damage it has done to the industry like tht
Bro he’s actually a musician I think it’s way more relevant to him than it is you
stfu man, you just a random, you don't give a fuck, be real.
what is this guy getting out of this use of his time
