No.
Thanks.

20$ per month seems quite high for a generation that used to downloading music for free. This might turn more people to Spotify.

it will depend on the music available.
if it is run by Jay Z it will probably be mostly a load of wank

but in all seriousness... I've been a Spotify paid subscriber for a few years and love it. If they offered a higher quality audio for a few bucks more than the $9.99 I've been paying I might do it although I probably wouldn't be able to hear a difference playing my lap top through my old receiver and/or any of the sub par headphones I own.

Drake ditched Jay Z's new streaming service for Apple just 2 days before its launch

That’s Business, Man: Why Jay Z’s Tidal Is a Complete Disaster
"He set out to save the music industry from the economics of streaming, and make himself a fortune in the process. So far, Jay Z is doing neither"

That press conference was so ridiculous -- overly dramatic for no reason. And so was the promo video.... All of these "ripped off" multimillionaire artists appeared all super serious and beyond stressed out as if there's an imminent threat to humanity and they are the only ones who can save the world...but they're all freaking out if they're making the right move. It seriously felt like a bad SNL skit. Instead of getting me excited & pumped about Tidal, this marketing campaign made me feel disinterested & indifferent....and I lost some respect for a few of the artists who are part of this.

These "genius" musical artist types need to get their head out of their ass! All the consumers want is variety, and cheap pricing. Who the fuck cares about their BS high quality sound that no one will ever hear. Do these butt-nuts really think that their music matters that much?

I tried to take the test but the first song was the killers, so I closed it before the song loaded.
Guess its not for me.

240$/year

If the artists regularly deliver great first hand content to this new service...yes, it will work.
this thing should be cheaper though, they should be less greedy!

Who will eventually offer vinyl or cassette quality listening using my Dre Beats headphones? Derrrr!

But that's the point, to give the "artist" more money (no free option, a la Taylor Swift's boycott of Spotify because it has a "free" options w/ ads, Beats will not have a free option, either, I don't think).
It'll be interesting to see. Personally I just can't get behind anything that JZ and Kanye put their names on (I would give Neil Young's version a try, though).
Pandora and company could kill this in a second, though, just charge a few bucks more for better quality. I'd do that.
It'll be more interesting to see if Beats works (I am really starting to think Apple has seen it's best day). I think it'll be a big fail, waaaaay too long for them to wait to relaunch w/ nothing new.
