The people of the country, too, have come a long way from hoarding pirated sites, and are now increasingly turning to these music apps to listen to their melodies.

Not only do these cut back on piracy, but also let you listen to your favorite songs, without much effort or cost. Here’s presenting some members of this family with their pros and cons, to make it easier for you to decide which music streaming app is best for you:

Gaana.com

gaana

One of the most famous music streaming App in the country, this one offers a 14-day trial period of the Gaana+ service which promises an advertisement-free HD audio experience.

Other than that, the App has an easy on the eye interface and its monthly subscription priced at a lowly Rs. 99. The site can also be made free by discontinuing various services, such as the offline saving.

One thing that the site offers better than its contemporaries is the ability to list the song(s) that the user’s friends are listening to, something which adds to the user experience.

Pros:

  • Nice Interface
  • Easy Access

Cons:

  • Inconsistent Music Library
  • Gaana+ Not Really Required

Wynk Music

The app, provided by Airtel, is one of the top players in the country and also ranks amongst the most used here. It offers unlimited music streaming services for Airtel users free of cost, but if you’re not an Airtel user, you’ll have to pay for it or otherwise have access to a limited number of songs per month.

Wynk’s plus point lies in the fact that its homepage is much more user-friendly and throws up better songs options intuitively in line with users individual taste if you ever are in a need for some suggestions.

Pros:

  • Easy to Follow Interface
  • Efficient Library (Specially Bollywood)

Cons:

  • Non-Airtel Users Have Near Zero Free Access
  • Incomplete Hollywood Library

Google Play Music

Apart from that, users also have a free cloud storage facility with the Google Play All Access subscription and will now be able to avail Google’s entire music library.

Pros:

  • Comparatively Cheapest Of The Lot
  • Free Cloud Storage (With Subscription)

Cons:

  • Lesser Duration Of Trial Period
  • Does Not Have Podcast

Jio Music

Not that it needs an introduction, as most people in the country are already using it unabashedly. Many services that it offers include free unlimited downloading of songs and support for over 20 regional languages.

Going by the rate Jio is gaining ground, it comes as no surprise that the Jio Music app is indeed the front-runner in this race.

Pros:

  • Completely Free (With Subscription) for Jio prime users
  • Unlimited Streaming And Downloads

Cons:

  • Reliance Jio-exclusive

All said and done, let us know which party are you more inclined to. Let’s see who wins.
