Apple Music vs Spotify in India: Which Should You Pick?
Both are ₹99–₹119/mo in India. The difference isn't price — it's catalog, integration, and audio quality.
Apple Music (₹99/mo individual, ₹149/mo family) and Spotify (₹119/mo individual, ₹199/mo family) sit within ₹20 of each other in India. The choice is about ecosystem and features, not price.
Apple Music — Lossless and Dolby Atmos included at no extra cost, tight iPhone/Mac/HomePod integration, better classical catalog, no free tier.
Spotify — best-in-class recommendations (Discover Weekly), podcasts, cross-platform (Windows, Linux, cars), Free tier available.
Verdict: iPhone-only households with a HomePod → Apple Music. Everyone else → Spotify.
