Tidal - why only remastered versions?

yea some remasters are pretty awesome... echo and the bunnymen are great
megadeth, no... but there is a story on those
the cars remasters are great

I'm more concerned with the disappearing albums that used to be there but are now gone. A few fav's are now not available.

For the music I favor, I frequently see multiples of the albums and many times it's not obvious to me what their differences are unless the M sign or "remastered" etc. This I wish Tidal would change so it's very clear what are the differences between the albums. I think sometimes they're just duplicates that got into the library. Qobuz was the same way.

Tidal - why only remastered versions?

One word, COMPRESSION

I'm a relatively new subscriber to Tidal and am somewhat surprised about the vastly different sound quality between albums whether original or remastered. Some albums sound great even though playback says  "normal" and others listed as " hi fi " sound poor by comparison. Other albums are obviously mono and one in particular ( Marion McPartland plays Bernstein ) sounds as if it was vinyl as clicks, plops and even stylus noise are very evident. Tidal and Spotify do not seem consistent but maybe Qobuz, when available in Australia could be the answer to better overall sound.
