Qobuz vs. Tidal

I had a free trial with Tidal for a while, it was quite good but cost more than Qobuz.  I ended up signing up with Qobuz for a year.  Qobuz is ok but could be better. For starters they do not have as many titles available. Also the search leaves a lot to be desired. If you search for a particular band or artist, all of their albums don’t always show up. Yet if you search the name of the particular album it sometimes does show up, now why is that? If they have a particular artist and you search it, all the songs or albums should show up. Compare this to Spotify for example, there is virtually nothing that is not available on Spotify, also when you do a search on Spotify, everything pops up related to the search. Not terribly impressed.

Qobuz has the best sound quality and a much larger collection of high resolution albums than Tidal.

If you are using a streamer the software is constructed by the streamer manufacturer and not Qobuz. How are you streaming? I have used Qobuz for years and never had any reason to contact them.

+1 @ghdprentice I use Qobuz w/ roon and with out. How to pronounce Qobuz is a different story.

Like anything. once you get used to the particular interface it’s nothing.

FYI I make all playlists in the native Qobuz app and use/play in roon.

Here’s one And here’s another

I have an Aurender A 15.

I am with others here, never had any issues with Qobuz. My Aurender’s Conductor App offers seamless integration of both Qobuz and Tidal. And I prefer Qobuz over Tidal based on my genre preferences.
