Given the music genres you are interested in there are not a lot of high-quality recordings.  That is not a slight on the Op at all it just means that Spotify would probably be sufficient.  That said, Spotify is good, Tidal is better and Qobuz is the best for SQ imo.  I use them all.  The only time I use Tidal is if an artist is not available on Qobuz and that is rare.  If I am outside I always use Spotify because SQ does not matter in that instance.
