Why does apple music use way too much cellular data I have recently decided to try apple music instead of spotify, mostly because of the audio quality. I understand that with better audio it uses more data but it's ridiculous. I have everything set to a minimum and it still uses almost 4-5 times more data than spotify? How is that possible Heres some screenshots of how much data it used for the same exact song on both streaming services, spotify is on data saver mode and apple music is on high efficiency And here are my settings Am I doing something wrong? I've already downloaded my main playlist so I can listen to it offline but if I want to listen to new music it's just going to eat all of my data and it's just not worth it.

Streaming Analytics How does apple music count total number of plays? How many seconds of streaming counts as a play? When my song is downloaded and played offline, does apple music regard total offline plays as part of music plays? Please I need comprehensive and factual answers. It's urgent 🙏🏿
