About IDAGIO
IDAGIO is a Berlin-based streaming service dedicated to classical music. General streaming apps organise music by artist and track, which works badly for classical recordings with composers, works, movements, soloists, conductors and orchestras; IDAGIO's search and catalogue are designed around those, so you can compare many recordings of the same piece. It offers over 2.5 million tracks in high audio quality, expert curation, mood-based playlists, offline listening and a payout model that pays artists based on listening time rather than per stream. Plans include audio streaming and options that add video, filmed concerts and courses, all with a 14-day free trial. Its main competitor is Apple Music Classical, which is included free with Apple Music. IDAGIO only covers classical music, so most people would use it alongside a general service. It runs on the web, iOS and Android.
Best for: Classical music lovers who want to search and compare recordings properly.
