Use a USB when riding and use a lossless service hard wired from phone to radio, to compete or demo for people.

I use XM on the head unit. I also use USB keys with mp3 music I've ripped from cds. I rip the cds at 320 kbs and the quality of the music from the USB keys is definitely better.

Recently someone encouraged me to check out Spotify, but I do use Amazon. With Prime, I can download songs to devices, which I do when building song lists on my phone. It's a pretty huge library....I can usually find a great quality version of anything I'm looking for. This and a bluetooth connection on the bike.

Wife and I travel a lot and every once in a while, if the song I'm listening to isn't downloaded on my phone, the streaming will get interrupted and I'll need to get it reconnected again....especially in rural areas.

Very true Buzz. Intermittent cell service will affect streaming and make for interrupted and buffered streams.

I only use Spotify. I pay for premium during riding season and then cancel it til I can ride again. I hate commercial ads.

Pandora you just pick a group or singer you like and they play music from them and groups like them. Its usually a good mix.
