I wish Microsoft would open source the Groove App.
Change the app so third parties could pugin their own drm and backend services.

I hated the spotify app on windows phone, it pretty much never worked for me unless I was on wifi. But even then it was pretty crappy, sometimes just not working unless you rebooted.

I switched to napster but although they have an actual UWP. the UX is not great.

I used Groove Music app when I had my Windows Phone, but I never used it much on my Windows PCs, although I have heard people talk about it positively.

The sticky point for that is that no apps want people to use their product without using their front end as well. Spotify and others won't willingly make a way for another app to scrape data from their product.
