iHeartRadio vs Spotify vs Pandora Premium
iHeartRadio Plus/All Access is best for live radio enthusiasts and podcast listeners. Spotify Premium has a larger on-demand music catalog and better discovery features. Pandora Premium falls between the two. If you primarily want on-demand music, Spotify or Apple Music are stronger options than iHeartRadio All Access.
