When you suddenly realize....

I admit that the ritual of cleaning the vinyl or CD and cueing it up is satisfying. But exploring the whole wide world of music is so exciting. And now that we have at least 16/44 resolution it rivals my hard drive of a mere 1500 CDs on the hard drive. Plus I have a second residence with its own system and in the vehicles, so Tidal goes where I go. My MacMini and NAS will get less service now. She was a constant companion for many years. But, it won’t replace vinyl, for what it’s worth. 

Server that streams Radio Paradise, your CD collection at a swipe of the pinky ( is that assembly line work ? )
and Tidal is the bomb !!!!

i am listening to Valerie Carters great voice and work ( Ringing doorbells in the Rain ) on Tidal : NAIM Atom to MC240 to Vandersteen 1ci Speakers - sublime...

whats next ?????

Had Tidal for about 3 months now. Just got Roon yesterday. Absolute paradise. Now as I stare at my CD rack in the corner (about700) ,
collecting dust. I put a lot of work and money into that collection and now it seems pointless...

@audioslain02 PM me and tell me what's in that rack. I still like the little silver discs....

Loving Tidal, I've had it for about 6 months.  It's the first service I've ever paid for on a monthly basis, but costing me less than one CD a month. I'm tripping down memory lane with hundreds of tracks from my youth, as well as my favorite classics and beats. The streaming is fast, easy and reliable. Woohoo and way to go. The TT and vynal are no longer getting tge attention they once did. Running Tidal through a Nad Bluos module, using a tablet running the Bluesound app. I see room for improvement in the app,  but loving and enjoying the sound. I've also steamed Tidal through my phone (connected to an amp) at parties,  reliving some ausome musical magic. It's a keeper and setting a great standard that will likely be a benchmark for some time.
