Spotify is RM 14.90/month here while Apple Music is 3.99 USD here which converts to around RM 17, I don't see Apple Music is anyway cheaper than Spotify?

IC.. anyway you using one of these?
If I am not wrong Spotify currently come with 3 month free usage & Yonder is currently free as well for Xpax and Celcom user. If I am not wrong, Celcom/Xpax is giving free data when you use Yonder too..
How much you think Yonder will be? when they charge? will it be cheaper?

I am currently using Spotify RM 2 promo for 3 months premium, KKBOX premium (free for 3 months for new user) and Yonder (I am Celcom First user), haven't tried Apple Music yet because too many music streaming apps in my phone now.

Spotify is great, you can find almost all new songs instantly when they release, but drawback is lack of mandarin/cantonese song.

KKBOX has fast update for mandarin/cantonese song but slow on new International song, for example, PSY new album not yet on KKBOX.

Yonder is free on Celcom but song coverage is not so wide yet and the UI is seriously not good, I still won't choose it even if Celcom is offering the service at cheaper price unless they change/update the UI and expand song coverage.

Yonder also got drawback lack of chinese song too. Anyway for English and even Malay song.. I found that it is quiet up to date. I don't listen to Kpop song.
User Interface - I think it is quiet okie la! easy navigate... just these is some command I don't really understand such as deep yonder etc...
Need some improvement time to time.

I found my favorite Singer - ROSSA... nice

Music quality can be subjective and also depends on your equipment ( headphones, stereo, speaker ) - when i listen to the same set of songs on spotify ( free, not premium) vs Yonder - my observation is the music quality gap is too obvious. if you can discern the difference, then you should enjoy Yonder but for the rest of us - there is no point having a free music app when it sounds like a tin can.

well, UI can be improved over time but i agree with you, the UI is too cluttered, making the UX terrible.

Different people have different view lol.. for me, the UI is okie for me. Maybe I didnot explore alot of complicated function inside there la! Just do simple set up with list and also look for the song that I like lol.
The best things, once you stream the song, the song had automatically download into your phone already. It is good for me, because I can stream the song offline that I prefer.
