Deezer
“The app you'll delete on Sunday and reinstall on Monday.”
Kindle

By our entirely fabricated metrics, Deezer wins the race to the bottom of your free time. Kindle is the “responsible” choice, in the way that a slightly smaller slice of cake is responsible. There are no winners here. Only documented hours.
Pick Your Poison
Choose Deezer if...
Deezer offers a compelling and ethically sound alternative to Spotify, especially for users who value sound quality and customizability. However, the persistent technical issues and occasional algorithm misfires make it a less polished experience, making it best suited for patient users who prioritize music quality over flawless performance.
Choose Kindle if...
The Kindle app remains a valuable tool for anyone who enjoys reading, offering a massive selection and many useful features. However, potential users should be aware of the recurring technical issues, especially with audiobook integration and library management, and that recent updates could negatively impact annotating and highlighting functionality.
