The most used online music services in the United States as of January 2024 were Spotify, YouTube music, and Apple Music. However, a study found considerable discrepancies among different age groups. While Spotify was clearly in the lead for younger Americans, as 55 percent of respondents aged 34 years or younger stated to have used the service, it is a much closer race in older age groups. Among Americans aged between 35 and 54 years, YouTube Music stood neck to neck with its Swedish competitor, whereas respondents aged 55 years or older prefer to use YouTube Music.
