Free Music Streaming Service | NetEase Cloud Music(网易云音乐)

网易云音乐(NetEase Cloud Music) is a free song streaming service provided by NetEase in China. 网易云音乐 has 10 million songs, and NetEase accounts can be created free of charge by users in the United States and abroad. However, you can enjoy and download songs without logging in.

Free accounts can also enjoy music and some songs can be downloaded(downloadable sound quality is up to MP3 320K), but international accounts cannot enjoy some songs due to copyright and regional restrictions. Songs that cannot be played due to copyright and region restrictions are grayed out.

However, using the 一键解锁网易云音乐灰色音乐(Unlock NetEase Cloud Music Gray Music with One Click) tool, you can unlock songs locked in gray. However, paid songs cannot be unlocked.

My music life, NetEase Cloud Music

<An 歌单 that can glimpse the various tastes of music of various users>

<Daily recommendations for songs that users may like>

The reason I enjoy using 网易云音乐 is because of 每曰歌曲推荐(Recommended songs every day). This function recommends 35 songs daily by 网易云音乐. In addition, it analyzes the user's taste with the song that the user selects 'Like(Heart)'(login required). So, it recommends songs that users might like(a kind of big data use).

‘歌单(playlist)’ is a playlist shared by users, and allows users to hear various tastes of various users.

For reference, all Chinese music streaming clients have almost the same interface and functionality.
