Battle of online music streaming providers?

I'm looking at either Spotify or Pandora to pay a monthly subscription to. Fairly novice as i have primarily used iTunes Radio and Sirius satellite services in the past. Want to eliminate the ads that I am getting from either Spotify or Pandora, that and assuming there are a few more features for a monthly subscription?
Speaking of ads, I get ads on Pandora through my phone. However, when streaming Pandora through my audio / video receiver, I don't get any ads whatsoever and I am not paying for a subscription- any ideas? I'm using the same login ID as I do on my phone.
Added to say that I am a Prime member at Amazon. Should I be looking at this option as well?

If you have Amazon Prime, I would look into their streaming music service since it's included with your membership.

How big of a deal is new music to you? If it is then Prime isn't for you. If your musical tastes are stuck in previous decades then Prime plus buying a few greatest hits and compilation albums can probably cover most of what you like to listen to.

I prefer Spotify by a mile over Pandora. But they are different products so it really depends if you prefer random play radio or you prefer listening to certain artist and albums.

seems to have a pretty huge library and stations on pandora which have gotten VERY OLD because of the same tracks constantly when put into google music its like opening a door to a new universe of music...

I've been pleased with Apple Music and I'm certain subsequent iterations of this product will only make it better and better.
YMMV though.

No, I change my location from time to time based upon my travel schedule.

One of the main reasons why I am staying put!

This, they're not the same thing at all.

What are the main differences between Pandora, Rhapodsy and Spotify?

I'm exclusive to Pandora... I think hearing new songs depends on the artists on your "channel". Its not unusual hearing a song on Pandora a few weeks before hearing it as a regular rotation on the radio.

This.
I can tell within 2 songs after walking into a store or someone's house if Pandora is the DJ.
