One of the biggest problems with other music streaming services is that they provide the user with a plethora of choices, but little help. That's where [Beats Music](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beats-cables) looks to differentiate itself from the competition: by delivering a custom, [curated interface](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/playlistation) that will offer a unique listening experience every time.

An extension of the Beats brand started by none other than Dr. Dre, Beats Music will offer a hyper customized experience that's [based on feelings, mood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/feeltrx) or even who you're with. The number of competitors on the market is plentiful to say the least with a number of major brands jumping on the bandwagon (i.e. iTunes Radio,) but that's not stopping Beats Music from making a name for itself as a well-known brand that's centered on delivering the ultimate in music entertainment.
