Ended my Qobuz subscription


My music tastes largely revolve around jazz recordings and I find a deep lacuna in Qobuz's jazz offerings, as well as with some other music genres.  I just cancelled my Qobuz subscription and am back with Tidal Hifi which has a much deeper jazz catalogue than that from Qoubuz.

I did the same a few months ago.  Qobuz has a much poorer jazz selection than Tidal.
There are plenty of sited that send you a new word of the day, all of them I enjoy.   Tidal is very good.  
I'm staying with Qobuz for now. I listen to 80% classical and find their catalogue to be vast and seems to be growing daily.
 Tidal is way behind in this area, but I didn't realise they had so much jazz. Tidal beats Qobuz with its rock selection  by a wide margin. Although, I've found that Qobuz has a fantastic selection of UK and Euro alternative/ independent music from the 80s and 90s. Makes sense since Qobuz got their start in Europe.



I almost exclusively listen to jazz and classical music. I have Tidal and Spotify.

I have Tidal at the student rate of $10/month. At that price level, Tidal with "Masters" (MQA) is worthwhile, but maybe I wouldn’t be as enthusiastic if the "usual" price applied. I have three complaints about the service:

1) the search function is persnickety (even a minor misspelling baffles the algorithm and sometimes entering by artist name or album title returns nothing but an alternative search phrase finds what I want).

2) Tidal relentlessly and annoyingly promotes music associated with its major shareholders (e.g., Jay-Z) and,

3) The algorithm oftentimes links music I like with utterly baffling choices.

I also have Spotify Premium at the student rate. I like that service for my "inattentive" listening because :

1). While fidelity doesn’t seem quite to the level of Tidal’s (but maybe I’ve fallen victim to propaganda in that regard), the selection of jazz seems more comprehensive and classical is commensurate with Tidal,

2) The Spotify algorithm creates more appealing playlists than does Tidal’s and,

3) Spotify’s search function is more forgiving (or simply better) than Tidal’s.

Right now, I can’t find a compelling justification for Qobuz, either by price or selection. I’d hoped that competition would drive down costs, but so far, that hasn’t happened.
