Usability Issues with Tidal

No issues with Tidal service...whatsoever. And yes, Tidal Hi-Fi is worth every penny, IMHO.

I find Spotify's catalog to be more extensive, unfortunately, it isn't in high defintion.
I am trying out Deezer. Sounds good, but the catalog seems limited in Classical, and I am having a problem with playback

My Tidal streaming service is working fine and it is highly recommended. Yes, I did have connectivity problems but they were caused by my Linksys router. This router was dropping packets and a repair was not available. I replaced it with an Apple Extreme Router and it is working perfectly. My other connectivity issue was caused by my ISP’s junction box outside my home. It was replaced and everything has been fine since.

My emails to them have been answered in 24 hours or less. Their service has been excellent.  

I like Tidal’s album selection and the sound quality is superb. I also like their MQA Masters selection.  

I agree with lalitk that Tidal is easily worth $20 per month. Tidal Streaming is recommended. 

The sound quality is better than other streaming services, but that ain’t saying much. On my tenth try I was eventually able to recover my password and connect Tidal to my Bluesound box. My initial impression of the sound quality was positive, but my point of reference was mp3s downloaded from iTunes.
I was surprised that masters were available on my iPad since I had read they were only available on the desktop version of Tidal.
I did A/B testing between these MQA tracks and the same song on CD. The CD blew the MQAs out of the water in terms of dynamics and the proper balance of the mix.
I don’t think the UI is anywhere near best in class. I do like having access to the library and I suppose it’s worth the $20 per month, but I am not delighted by Tidal.

@wakethetown, I am streaming Tidal using an Aurender N10 Music Server and their Conductor App running on my iPad is very easy to use.  My sound quality is excellent.   The MQA Coded albums are available in the Master Tab.

I am surprised your CD’s are sounding much better than the same album on Tidal.   As I understand it, you are using the Bluesound Node 2 with Tidal. My Aurender is using an Ethernet line connected to my Apple Extreme router connected to my Arris modem.   

How is your Bluesound Node 2 connected to your router?   What router are you using?   As I described above, my Linksys router was having major signal problems and the resulting distortion prevented me from listing to anything from Tidal.  

I doubt your ISP is the problem but it might be worth while to ensure your signal strength is okay (call your ISP and request this test).  My Arris modem FAILED its signal testing meaning the ISP had to replace my outside junction box (entire neighborhood issue).   An out of range signal distorts the signal and causes all kind of problems.  You should also run a speed test on your modern to ensure your speeds are okay.  

This type of trouble shooting is not easy and maybe others can add their suggestions.
