Qobuz is the best audiophile-oriented streaming service I've used, but their library is unfortunately a bit lacking for me - but this is a matter of your music taste, so definitely give them a shot.
Spotify has comfortably the best music recommendation engine, but no lossless. Probably not a big deal, but I'm a paranoid enough audiophile that I just don't want to pay for that.
Apple Music is reasonably nice on iOS, but kind of half-assed if you want to use it on Windows, and not really designed for anal-retentive audiophiles who want their bits perfect.
Amazon Music is very low-rent as a service, but it's affordable (I already used Prime) and does the job I need it to do, so that's what I use.
I also buy stuff from Bandcamp a bunch. This is by far the most profitable avenue for the artist, these streaming apps pay nothing.
Fuck MQA, ergo, fuck Tidal.

It takes careful attention and excellent equipment (and pretty good hearing) to hear the difference between lossless and 320kps Ogg Vorbis. Spotify is $11/mo and includes Hulu (with ads). I'm pleased with it.

Interesting that you mention Amazon Music. I didn't think on it at all haha But I'll keep it in mind.
