Looks like Tidal is doomed!

Deezer is a worthy alternative to Tidal right now.
Have to wait for Quboz see how they perform too.

I guess I abused the free trials with Tidal and got *BANNED* - meaning, I they won’t even let me pay for the service! Never liked you anyway. So I pay my $20/mo to Deezer, whose app is sort of glitchy, but it’s basically a good service. I find it’s hard to get to CD quality sound from streaming even with a lot of extra $ spent in DACs. It sounds good, but not as good, even if the files are bit-by-bit identical.

I hope Tidal stays afloat and becomes profitable. I like MQA titles. Perhaps Bob Stuart of Meridian can throw them a loan. He makes alot on money from MQA licensing and I would think he stands to lose if Tidal folds...

Alas, as in the past, the musician gets the money last. 
So, basically TIDAL is bleeding cash and using the artists' already earned royalties to fund the company. This will probably be the undoing of TIDAL's current ownership group. They won't be able to pay the accumulating interest on six months' worth of unpaid royalties--together with the legal bills they will owe for defending against the breach of contract cases that will be filed. They may also be liable for the attorneys fees the record companies and artists incur in collecting their earned but not paid royalties. The one asset they will have to pay their debts will be their equity positions in TIDAL. It is a good product that will probably survive with a different mix of ownership.
