Why can you only download Apple Music to watch and not Spotify or YTM?
So if I don't pay the new $10.99 I can't download music to my watch? Isn't it my watch and should be able to download other music than Apple.

You are at the wrong forum.

Ask that question at a Spotify and/or YTM forum.

They have to make/adjust their apps IOT make downloading possible.

It is not an Apple “problem”. 😉
Isn't it possible that Apple is not allowing them such capabilities hence why they haven't made it available?

It's also possible that they are the ones who haven't tried. We don't know. You can condemn (or excuse) anyone just by a "possible." You cannot prejudge either way without more information.

Well, since Spotify on the Watch seems to be able to download music for offline use (correct me if I‘m wrong), it‘s probably not Apple‘s fault that other apps aren’t able to do the same ;-)

I realize it’s not as popular of an option any more, but you can buy your music and download it, without subscribing to Apple Music. This is what I do.
