We’ve been preaching the gospel of streaming music service Deezer, for a long while now but today, I thought I’d go back to the drawing board and explain exactly what makes Deezer the best music streaming service in the country.
But first, the basics: music streaming is an access-based subscription service which allows users to access tracks simultaneously across multiple devices. Deezer is a digital music streaming service that gives you access to over 35 million songs – the biggest streaming catalogue in the world.
A user is able to listen to their music in an online mode (streaming) or in an offline mode (download and sync to device). The offline mode is honestly one of Deezer’s best features as it allows you to take your music anywhere, even where there’s zero signal. There is also zero limit to the number of songs you can listen to or sync to your device.
There’s also this really cool side bar that tracks your friends’ listening activities in real time – so I can see what kind of week my friend Mvelase is having by the 50 Mariah Carey tracks he just listened to in succession.
But the main reason that Deezer is the bee’s knees is its low cost of R59.99 a month. But what about data costs, I hear you shouting at me. Well, the average Deezer user uses approximately 350MB a month, this will obviously vary depending upon your listening habits, but I bet you it’s much lower than what you might have thought.
So if you haven’t already, I urge you to download the Deezer app for a premium music experience and if you’re a Vodacom subscriber you get the first 2 months free if you click here now.
And then after you’ve subscribed you can listen to our exclusive playlist below featuring the best local tunes from some of the freshest artists.
