Spotify is garbage, last time I used it it was missing basic features like sleep timer, play count, song rating, and history. I buy my music and use poweramp instead.

Spotify has sleep timer and listen history. I don't see the need for song rating and play count, that sounds like old UX to me. Doesn't actually add functionality for me.

I've been a happy paying spotify user for well over a decade, I love listening to new music all the time. Also, for counts/history I just scrobble to last.fm

Oh yeah, I should check out my last.fm, I set up scrobbling forever ago and then just forgot about it.

Love power amp.. I'm on Spotify thou.. so I don't get to use it too much

I would love for power amp to be able to connect to the main online storage services thou.. that's where most of my music I own is nowadays

I've been using pulsar for years now with all of my old music files. That, and Amazon music and Pandora. I love Pandora's randomness tbh.
