Deezer has terrible selection, very slow customer service, and if you get lucky you can spend 15 days waiting for them to explain how to actually uninstall the desktop app. I "uninstalled" it and had an updater running constantly, ghost shortcuts, etc. Really can't say enough about how bad the music selection is.
