Deezer music service and its features

Yandex.Music, Boom, Spotify and Deezer are all services that allow you to listen to music in high quality without interruptions and ads. However, what makes Deezer stand out from the rest of the services? We will talk about this in our article.

What is the Deezer service?

Deezer is an international music streaming service that offers over 73 million tracks, including both new and old songs in high quality. You can include a specific album, a selection in recommendations, and any other songs.

In the program, you can create a playlist, which will always be available on all devices.

The Deezer team selects music based on your preferences. There is:

• daily updated playlists;
• collections;
• selections by genre, and by performers – from the most popular to those unknown to the general public.

The more tracks you listen to, the more the service learns about your preferences. Thanks to this, you will receive fresh music selections that are as close as possible to your passions.

Pros and cons of the service

No platform is without flaws. The 
Deezer service has both positive and negative sides. Positive qualities of the platform:

• Choice of music. On the service you have access to a large catalog of music: more than 73 million tracks that are updated daily.
• Collections. Based on your preferences, you will always have access to a catalog of hundreds of playlists that have been selected just for you.
• Convenient interface. A simple and functional interface allows even the most inexperienced person to use the application.
• Free version. If you don’t want to pay for the service, you can always use the free version with limited functionality.
• Multiplatform. The application can be run on almost all devices: phone, tablet, computer or laptop, speakers, portable watches and even a car.
• flow mode . This mode allows you to listen to music continuously.
• Possibility of shutdown. You can set the time that the music will play, after which it will turn off (for example, you can set the workout time instead of the timer).
• Podcasts. Unlike its closest competitors (Spotify, Yandex.Music, etc.), Deezer has podcasts that you can listen to at any time.

Negative aspects of the application:

• Repeat songs. In Flow mode, you can often hear songs that are already on your favorite tracks.
• Music quality. In the free version of the application, it often happens that the songs have a very low quality.
• Advertising. In the free version of the application, you can often hear ads, which is not the case in the Premium version.
• Limited number of switches. In the free version, you can switch only a few tracks in a row, after which you will have to wait a certain time to skip the track again.

These are all significant minuses of the application, which do not spoil the feeling of using the application, because they are leveled by the number of pluses of the service.

Since 
Deezer  is a music service, it has similarities with other portals (
Spotify, Apple Music ). Spotify 
and Deezer have 
exclusive live sessions.

Premium subscription at a reduced price:
