You'll have a huge library to pick from consisting of over 400,000 artists singing 16 million songs.

A feature called "Perfect For" will give you song recommendations based on the activity you are doing. You can use your imagination as to what some of those activities are. It's a great app to own whether you want to hear the latest songs, golden oldies, or even the traffic and weather in a city you don 't live in.
