Amazon just killed Tidal


Today Amazon released Amazon Music Unlimited HD streaming for $12.99 per month for  Amazon Prime members.

There is a free trial.

Streaming is in CD and High Rez quality!

50 million songs!

Just started my subscription. More info later.

This apparently has Neil Young’s blessing and he says this is big for the future of music, so there you go. A big player like Amazon streaming hi-rez audio? I’ve been waiting for that to happen. He’s probably right.

This will be like a baby boom for audiophiles!!!!  Let's all rejoice!
Is it Roon ready/compatible? I just signed up for Qobuz and am comparing it to Tidal. Qobuz sounds better. Amazon must be Roon ready or no go for me.  Doubt it will sound as good as the $24 top Qobuz offering.
On my iPad with Audioquest Cobalt and headphones I get 24bit 96khz playback on the ultra HD songs!

This is a game changer!
