In an effort to find out how to best listen to music on a phone, I researched the top two best music apps for the iPhone and Android phones.

The 1st app I found for Android is Google Play Music. The pros of the app are:

• Being able to upload your music
• You can save your online music for offline play

And the cons are:

• It focuses more on its online content than your offline content, so if you’re looking for something that’s solely for offline content you’ll want to look elsewhere

The 2nd app I looked at is Soundcloud for both the iPhone and Android. The pros of the app are:

• You have the option of either uploading an already recorded audio, or recording it on the spot
• There are NO LIMITS to file sizes
• There are tons of music and artists available

And the cons are:

• That you can’t play the songs offline
• That some of the songs that you look for won’t sound like the original

The best app I found for the iPhone and Android is Spotify. The pros are:

• That it’s free
• You can listen to popular artists

The cons are:

• That you have to put up with ads on your screen and audio commercials between songs
• The cost to get Premium varies from $1-10
