Apple is actually a much better choice than Spotify. My numbers are a few years old but iirc, Apple pays artists almost twice as much as Spotify. Only Amazon has a worse artist payout than Spotify.
Of course, Tidal and Qobuz are still much better than Apple but they also have the limitations you’ve mentioned.
Oh and Apple and the others don’t fill out playlists with AI generated music so they themselves can get the payout for the plays. You know, like Spotify does.
Realistically, even YouTube Music is more ethical than Spotify these days and that’s saying something.
