Apple Music, Google Play Music, Spotify, or Tidal: which one do you use - 2018 edition

Music streaming services have really picked up lately. The convenience of being able to listen to absolutely any song no matter where you are is definitely worth the $10-ish per month. Even devout audiophiles can get lossless quality if they pay for a $20 per-month Tidal subscription, and keeping a bunch of mp3s stored on your phone seems to be a thing of the past.

But is it really? We thought we'd ask you, our smartphone-savvy readers, whether you make use of such services. A couple of years ago, 33% of people who voted on a similar poll were on Spotify and another 33% were on Google Play, leaving the other services out there fighting for scraps. Has that trend changed? Let's see!
