If “Spotify” remains by far the most loved music-streaming service, “Apple Music” has emerged as a decorated challenger. Whether it’s offering millions of songs to stream on-demand, providing the desired freedom to play high-quality songs, or dishing out the much-needed flexibility to customize everything in line with one’s preference, Apple’s music service has got all the key boxes covered. 

To further amp up the customization game, you can even create an Apple Music profile that consists of your favorite playlists and what you’re currently listening to. Depending on your preference, you can choose to share your profile with everyone or only select people. If you ever do not want to keep your profile, you can get rid of it without any hassle either.
