I have been paying for Spotify Premium for as long as the platform has been popular. However, as a YouTube Premium subscriber, which includes YouTube Music Premium, I only recently realized that I have been sleeping on a fantastic music streaming service. Seamless Integration With YouTube Jack Mitchell/MakeUseOf As a musician and music fan, I find YouTube a godsend for viewing music videos and live concerts, finding rare cuts, and interacting with like-minded folks. YouTube Music Premium uses its sibling resource by bridging the gap between audio and video like no other streaming service. If you love watching live performances…

Ahead of this year’s Miami Grand Prix, Formula 1 drivers have swapped the usual parade truck for something far more blocky and brilliant: fully drivable, life-sized Lego F1 cars.

Minifig masterpieces All Lego is a mash-up in some people’s hands. But TIE Fighter & X-Wing Mash-up ($109.99/£94.99 • 1063 pieces) has very specific ideas in mind. Drawing from Disney+ special Rebuild the Galaxy, it has you build two of the most famous Star Wars ships. Then you can swap their wings to make a TIE-wing and an X-fighter. If the very thought has given you continuity shock, probably avoid The Dark Falcon ($179.99/£159.99• 1579 pieces), which reimagines the famous starship as a vessel for evil. Specifically, Darth Jar Jar. No, we’re not joking.  Want everything to be normal again? Try Imperial Star Destroyer ($159.99/£149.99 • 1555 pieces). This triangle of grey…

Welcome to our guide to the best music streaming services. 20 years ago, when CDs were medium number one and musicians could still make a living from selling their records, the idea of having almost every song ever recorded at your fingertips on your phone (as well as every movie with the best streaming services) seemed the stuff of science fiction.  Even when Spotify launched out of the blue in 2008, few predicted the seismic shift in music consumption that would follow. Yet today’s best music streaming services make the idea of building an MP3 collection look positively Stone Age.…
