Everyone who calls themselves an audiophile has a Tidal subscription now, the lossless quality was a brilliant selling point.
It's not even expensive, cheaper than their speaker cables they upgrade every year anyway.
- wha?monospaced
- the number of "audiophiles" who would care about this is such a low number tho... so no, not that brilliantchukkaphob

Tidal Accused of Generating 300 Million Fake Streams for Kanye and Beyoncé
- jagara1
I've had Tidal for a few months now. It came free with my mobile subscription.
It's roughly the same music collection as Spotify. Although Spotify has a bit more obscure stuff.
Tidals discovery function is pretty horrible, compared to Spotify. And i never thought i would miss the social media aspect. But i find myself missing looking at my friends music collection.
But all in all, i'm pretty pleased with it. Tidals library is being expanded all the time, even with old stuff. Tidal is still new. I guess they needed time to get going properly.
These days, i find that the differences between Spotify, Tidal, Rdio and Deezer (i've used them all) are pretty minescule. Spotify does win by a few hairs, though. It's been around longer, and it shows.

- Am i on the payroll at Spotify, you mean? No. Just MHO on Tidal :)jagara
- i meant for tidal, seems like a very substandard product in comparison to metrue_cut
- Did'nt i just say i preferred Spotify? I wouldn't call it substandard, though...jagara
- Isn’t their whole platform that they are streaming high quality? Spotify quality is still pretty shit even after years.monospaced

Will "Tidal" music work on my 512MB Creative NOMAD Jukebox Zen Xtra?
- My first MP3 player had 64MB of memory. I had to recompress music if I wanted to listen to one whole album. http://ak1.ostkcdn.c…nb
- Same - I think mine was 32MB out of the box. http://www.amazon.co…duckseason

Tidal gives equity stake to first-tier artists like Kanye West, Daft Punk, Beyonce, Rhianna, Coldplay, Calvin Harris, Madonna and more.
So the rich become richer.
Cool!

Sorry..
I know it's not good for artists, but Spotify took iTunes down and broke both of it's legs. By associating itself with Beats, it's like iTunes now decided it's arms are no longer needed and chopped them off.
iTunes is basically a beat up torso, lying on the ground.. motionless, perhaps still breathing.. Maybe Tidal will run over it too, but there's a long way till it can touch Spotify, perhaps in a few years.. who knows?
- still, spotify belong to the majors.ApeRobot
- iTunes still has millions of users who actually pay for music, which brings in as much as Spotify's subscriptions, btwmonospaced
- I am one of the people who moved to Spotify and never paid again, though.monospaced
- iTunes software is an absolute abominationfadein11

"A leaked contract between Sony and Spotify seems to suggest that record labels are making far more money from streaming services than people realised."

Looks like some label pr aimed (successfully) against the streaming services.
