Tidal and MQA..two questions.


Tidal seems to be in financial trouble as it has been reported in many news outlets. Jay-Z is having problems with not paying artists and paying two artists too much money.

1. Therefore if Jay-Z was forced to sell the artist owned company ...who would bail it out?
2. Also are there any other streaming services that offer MQA content (other than Tidal)?

Qobuz is fantastic!! I’m a euro subscriber. I need to cancel TIDAL since I hardly ever listen to it. 
We are still waiting the USA launch of Quboz.
What sort of streaming quality does it offer?
MQA is not something I think is valuable based on my listening. Hit or miss in terms of sound quality. However, Tidal overall has wonderful sound.  So good I sold my big dollar CD player and all my CDs.  I just stream now with some 1000 ripped CDs.  I planned to never buy a CD again, but that will change if Tidal goes away.  😒

I am a huge Tidal fan with Roon. Together I am getting the best SQ I have ever had. I will be in distress if Tidal  goes away 😂
Has anyone else found 16/44 Tidal on Roon doesn't sound as good as the same track ripped and served locally by Roon? My wife actually noticed this - we were playing an orchestral piece and she commented the sound was anemic and lacking, "something's wrong." I realized she had clicked on it in Tidal, and when I switched to the ripped local copy she said it was better again. They were both 16/44, so no MQA involved.

I hear you on TidalBut I think Deezer is a worthy alternative and hopefully Quboz will be another good option when it finally launches in the USA.
Not sure how either of those integrate with Roon as I do  not use it.
I have to say though in my rig to my ears, MQA is usually audibly better but just my opinion.
