I have Netflix and Hulu Plus, and likely might add Spotify Premium at some point so I can get rid of ads and more features on my phone. Ethics and money aside, it's a better music service IMO and is cross-platform. Android support for Apple Music is coming, but really I've never been impressed with Apple's software on platforms other than it's own. iTunes on a PC is atrocious. iTunes on a Mac needs reworking, but it's waaaay more usable.
It's as if Apple wants to give them as much as they have to but nothing more. TBH though, Google's Apps in iOS aren't anywhere near as full-featured as their Android apps. They don't want to give it all to iOS users. A shame because I'm all in with Google at this point (Search, Gmail, Calendar, Chrome, YouTube, Drive, Photos, Hangouts, Docs, Google Now, etc). I think Google Now on iOS is partially limited because Apple doesn't want competition, and part Google not wanting to give too much to iOS people. They did give the unlimited photo storage to iOS though, and I'm digging that.
