Alternatives to Deezer
French streaming with flow recommendations
Deezer ranks #1 of 10 in Music streaming, with an Alt Score of 86. It is proprietary, freemium from $11.99/month and available on Web, iOS and Android. 10 of 10 checklist rows are verified against a public source.
Music listeners who want a large streaming catalog with strong music-discovery tools, and audiophiles who want lossless audio quality without switching services.
Access to a catalog of over 120 million tracks plus podcasts and radio stations, streamable on phones, desktop, and connected devices like Chromecast and smart speakers. Flow builds a continuously updating personalized mix based on listening habits, and lyrics and song-identification tools are built in. Premium plans support offline downloads, and the HiFi tier adds CD-quality FLAC (16-bit/44.1kHz) playback for compatible hardware. Plans range from single-user Premium to Duo and Family multi-account options.
Users sign up for a subscription tier (Premium, Duo, or Family, with an optional HiFi audio upgrade), then search or browse the catalog, save playlists, and let Flow queue up recommended tracks automatically. Music can be streamed online or downloaded for offline listening across supported apps and devices.
