Music streaming


I'am newbie to streaming music,I need to pick a music streaming service.

I listen to mostly rock,blues,pop and some jazz a little classical once and a while.

I purchased a used Auralic Vega G-1 streamer.

I was wondering if there is a way to stream my Youtube Premium music through my Chromecast notebook?

I don't think the Auralic supports Chromecast,but is there a way to do it?

Otherwise I just need to pick one of the other services.

I'm looking for ease of use and audio quality,but need to keep it simple.

Thanks.

Ward.

Thanks to all the help,

I ended up signing up for a 60 trial with Tidal just to get going with something.

One thing I already notice ,to me it seems to weigh heavily towards modern pop and r&b,

But that was just a first impression

Does Qobuz have a deeper catalog of old stuff like 70's hard rock?

I use Qobuz, love it very easy and great SQ.  I have the Cambridge Audio CXN on one system and I just bought the Rose 250A to do hi res video as well.  Not sure I am going to keep.  Great build terrible app and remote.  Wonky

If anyone has one, would love to get some feedback on the Rose RS250A, may be going back to Crutchfield, who are world class

@speedysteve4 i had the RS250A for a short time.  It sounded excellent but the software was wonky.  After a couple of days with it Tidal tracks started streaming at incorrect bit rates and everything sounded like Alvin and the Chipmunks.  Qobuz worked flawlessly though and playing from the internal SSD was flawless as well.  I decided it was too much money to spend for it to not work correctly out of the box so I returned it.  Had the software been better I would likely still have it.

@twangy57 i have both Tidal and Qobuz.  I think Tidal has a ton 70s rock.  I would say the only content that Qobuz has a better selection of is classical (and maybe Jazz but I wouldn’t bet on it)..
