What it's like using YouTube's quirky new Spotify competitor

There's a new music streaming app in town.

Well, it's actually for watching music videos too. And concert videos. And instructional videos on how to play music. Basically anything music related on YouTube.

It's called YouTube Music, and it's available for free in the App Store and Google Play.

I just took it for a spin, and while it's hard to say if it will replace Spotify or Apple Music for most people, you should definitely check it out.

Here's why:

• YouTube is offering a free 14-day trial of its $10-per-month YouTube Red subscription with the app, which removes all ads on YouTube and lets you save videos and audio for offline playback.
• The app gives you complete access to basically every licensed song and music video on YouTube, the latter of which is mainly powered by Vevo.
• You also get access to Google Play Music with a Red subscription, which is more of a direct alternative to Spotify and Apple Music.
