    • Google play music is a good combination of streaming and offline play.  I never have trouble finding something to listen to that I enjoy.  The app is fully accessible too.

    • I subscribe to google play music because in addition to the streaming music, you get youtube red which removes ads from youtube videos. Which is helpful music wise if by chance a bands album isn't available on play music for streaming. I can go find it on youtube and listen uninterrupted and cast it to my stereo with chromecast audio.

    • The Spotify app for Android is very easy to use with Talkback.  All buttons are clearly labelled and it is easy to navigate to the different areas of Spotify ranging from public playlists to your own playlists.  I strongly recommend Spotify for audio streaming on Android.

Pandora - 5%

    • This app is completely accessible and works great. There are no unlabelled buttons and Talkback speaks everything on the screen. I also love its social features. You can follow others and see what they are listening to. It also has a large variety of music. I have tried Jango Radio, but it did not have the variety I wanted and is not nearly as accessible. Pandora also has very high quality sound. I live in an area with poor cellular network coverage, but when I check the box for high-quality sound, it still works great!

Jango Radio - 5%
