With the introduction of another music streaming service, we7, to Ireland earlier this month, it’s time to write a best of post and consider the three best free music streaming service options available to choose from.
We7 has been avaiable in the UK since 2008, and launched in Ireland earlier this month. Songs are free to choose and play, although are streamed along with a short audio advert before each track. The site boasts a healthy 6.5 million tracks from all four major music labels. Ad-free service is offered for a monthly subscription.
We covered Eircom’s MusicHub offering when it was first announced and were pleasantly surprised. The service is free to stream for existing Eircom Broadband customers, with subscription packages available to allow track downloads and to allow non-Eircom customers access. Eircom boast of four million tracks that can be streamed or downloaded DRM free, so they can be used across multiple devices. The only real downside is that the website relies heavily on Flash something that doesn’t bode well with mobile devices and Apple enthusiasts like myself.
Other notable services that aren’t free, or are not available here in Ireland yet, include Spotify, Pandora, Qriocity, and Last.fm. Share your thoughts in the comments.
