I LOVE to pay for UNLIMITED
It doesn't just allow you to listen ad-free (as compared to non-Prime free version), but to make playlists, download songs to save phone data, get lossless compressed (up to 320 kbps), double the library, and anything else an "audiophile" who wants to listen to music would love for which to pay. However, if you're used to radio, the free version and the version free with Prime progressively beat more out of what your dial will let you do, with better sound...
With several Echos, including all my FireTVs and two tablets, I don't use this app half as much as I should, and I should start getting into the habit, especially having Unlimited. They've got an INCREDIBLE SELECTION OF SONGS, but, minus my dot, I forget to just flip it on, with my tablet and an external speaker, or using my FireTV and home stereos. I haven't upgraded in forever, because I always wait to see if I HAVE TO and/or if newer versions get good reviews. Looks like I'm glad I've been waiting, from reading the other reviews...

One of the worst streaming
I have to keep checking & updating the app , refreshing the app, turning on and off or clearing cache at least once a week. Why is it so? Why my songs not organised the way I want? I keep reorganising and it keeps going back to previous setting. Why do I have problems with playing next song in my playlist. I have done and tried all possible and suggested steps. Should have stayed with Apple Music. The settings on Apple Music stay the same as I last changed and streamed exactly the same setting across my devices: iPhone, MacBook Pro and iMac. Bought a Samsung, and Androids are not as I think it should be, people swear their the best. I have been using Apple products for 18 years and not a single time I need to fix or run maintenance.

Can’t dislike songs and the app keeps crashing
This app used to be really good, however it never worked for me on my phone so I had to use it on my iPad instead.
Sometimes it randomly stops playing my music. That didn’t massively bother me much and I would just resume it.
However, recently it has stopped allowing me to remove songs from my liked playlist. I am able to remove songs from any playlists I have made perfectly fine, however I can’t remove songs from the preset ‘My Likes’ playlist. Whenever I dislike a song that I did previously have liked and refresh the page it readds it to my liked.
I have tried Googling how to remove it but all it says is to click the three dots and select ‘Remove from playlist’. The ‘remove from playlist’ button is only available in playlists that you have created yourself, so it doesn’t work for my likes playlist. I have spent several hours trying to remove a song I no longer like and it is still stuck in my playlist.
Other than the fact that you can’t remove songs from the preset ‘My Likes’ playlist, it is a fairly good app to use when listening to my favourite songs.
