Yes I have been posting about Tidal. l like Tidal, don’t like what Jay-Z has done to it. One question persists, to which no one has an answer, is there ANY other streaming service that provides MQA content???
I don’t know of any other service that offers MQA, but I wouldn’t be too worried. Last year streaming accounted for 65% of all music revenues. Cd, vinyl and dvd combined accounted for 15% according to the RIAA. Tidal will be around for a while and new ownership will probably be good for it.
@hgeifman If you have ROON with Tidal integration you can just backup the ROON catalogue. I asked the ROON guys about this a few years ago and they said the TIDAL track\ names would also be saved in the backup.
@yyzsantabarbara, Thanks. Unfortunately, my Aurender N10 Music Server does not support ROON.
@tomcy6, Thanks. As you stated, I certainly hope TIDAL will be around for a while. I believe TIDAL is the only music streaming service that provides MQA Coded albums. Tidal Streaming is excellent and I am surprised it does not have more subscribers. I wonder if the above are numbers are correct.
Email I received from Qobuz: “we are not opened yet in the United States but we hope to extended our services there very soon as well. Thanks a lot for your interest! By registering to our NewsLetter, you will be informed of the opening for new countries. (it's planned for this fall at this stage). We are included in the AURENDER Music Servers”. Unfortunately, no release date announced yet.
i also emailed Tidal about their financial status and they have not responded yet. Unfortunately, they may not respond.
