What it is
The desktop app for the music streaming service. Its strengths are user-made playlists and taste-based recommendations, plus a large international catalogue. The free tier plays music but inserts ads and limits how freely you pick tracks.
When to pick this
For international music or for finding new tracks through recommendations. If you own your music files, foobar2000 is lighter.
Details
Free versus Premium
The free tier plays ads between tracks and limits skips. Premium removes ads and allows offline downloads.
Recommendations
It builds new playlists each week from what you have listened to. Many people use it mainly to find new music.
Local catalogue
International coverage is broad, but some Korean tracks may be missing. Check before switching if that is most of what you listen to.
