I tried to switch to Spotify but came back to Apple Music after 1 day of using it.

I really liked the Spotify UI and their album list makes sense. But it does not offer any significantly different feature than made me chose it over Siri integration with Apple Music. Siri is frustrating at times but I can’t imagine not using it when I am in my car.

I’m very disappointed that Apple has not made it possible to integrate Spotify with Siri and don’t want to reward Apple for it--even though it’s something I value.

their "discover weekly" playlist is great but im not sure how well they work for new users. ive been using spotify for around 8 years so by the time they released discover weekly they probably had a good profile on me and it definitely showed. there have been times where maybe 15 or 20 out of the 30 tracks in the playlist have been ones that i liked and 5 or so out of that 20 have become favourites. thats been the general pattern for me anyway on a good week, others it might be less.

Discover Weekly was already pretty awesome for me after a month or so.

That's compelling -- I catch myself starting to ask Alexa to play a song while driving at least three times a week.

Spotify has a great recommendation algorithm, not as good as that from last.fm but it works very well for me.

And that is something that should be considered antitrust.

I am not sure you understand what antitrust actually means.
