Spotify is undoubtedly the application of streaming music most popular internationally. But many find it very inconvenient to constantly listen to advertisements, although they also have no intention of paying for the service. But for them we have found an alternative.
Is Humm a enforcement that uses the YouTube API, so you can listen to all the music you want completely legally, free of charge and without having to be interrupted by annoying ads. It is also a startup of Spanish origin.
This is Humm, the app that aims to dethrone Spotify
listen to youtube music
The application has a catalog of more than 50 million songs extracted from the music that can be heard in Youtube. Basically, what it allows us to do is listen to all the songs that we want, from those that are available on the video portal, and create playlists or radio stations with them, based on our favorite artists or songs. As it is part of YouTube, it is completely legal and free, just as it would be if we were directly listening to music through videos.
It is not a download app
Although Humm offers some of the services that we find in Spotify Premium for free, there is something for which at the moment we have no choice but to continue contracting the paid service, and that is that we cannot store playlists to listen to them Without connection.
The creators of Humm make it clear that they do not intend to be a download application, but rather a bridge so that more users are encouraged to subscribe to paid services.
Music and videos
Something that many users have praised about Humm is that by extracting music from YouTube, it also allows us to watch the videos of our favorite songs. Of course, keep in mind that this causes the songs to take a little longer to load or that some songs and videos are not available in some specific regions.
If, despite this, the idea seems interesting to you, you can access the platform through its web version or download the Android application at the following link:
