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.

@twangy57 When I find an artist I like i use related artists a lot.  It’s easy to find similar artists that way and easy to spend hours doing it.

I've recently settled on Deezer. In my current home system it is clearly better than all others. And, I am still surprised by this. Qobuz had been my preferred service for some time.

Surprised no one has said it yet. Bluetooth for listening to music is not good. Once you go Hi-rez audio natively one a streamer, you will never go back!

Youtube is horrible for audio. But can usually be cast over bluetooth. Have done it from my laptop a few times. 

If you like to watch videos, Tidal, has them, and sounds good. 

Only time I use Bluetooth is the sound bar in my bedroom, every time it makes my appreciate my 2ch system more.
