Neil Young calls out Tidal



TIDAL is calling their files of my songs Masters. But TIDAL’s MQA files are not my masters. I make my masters - not TIDAL. I made my masters the way I wanted them to sound. If TIDAL referred to their titles as TIDAL MASTERS, I would have no problem, but they don’t. They call them Masters. I had my music removed from that platform. They are not my masters.”.

From Doc Aix letter:

EDITOR'S NOTE: MQA claims, "...you get exactly what the creators intended," is patently false! You get what MQA or TIDAL decides sounds "better."
It does look like most of his music has been pulled.  I’m subscribing to both Tidal and Qobuz right now but may ditch Tidal after my discounted subscription expires.
i have both and make up my mind....by listening. More power to Neil if that is how he feels.
Respect his decision, obviously. But I have missed his albums.  It is sad.  I sure hope they can reach a compromise. 
Lol, pandora sounds just fine to me, and it’s free. I am not paying to stream, no way. When I stream it is absolutely not for critical listening, it Is for when I’m lazy and for low volume background music. Using a topping bc3 bluetooth module connected to my v90 dac, sounds great to me. Total investment...$369.
