What does /mu/ think about Tidal?
What does /mu/ have to say about streaming services, and which ones in particular?
Thank you!
Why do people torrent still when Spotify exists?
Spotify >> Tidal = Apple Music. SC is it's own thing, which p much exists as a complement to the other streaming services.
(UI, pricing, selection, community settings, playlists, AI recs, etc)
Streaming is the near-term future of music. If I weren't an artist who samples heavily, i'd use streaming solely.

legality for some.
i don't participate in unpaid market research
It's a Ponzi scheme for the big guys to sink their money into to avoid paying tax.
The only remotely decent streaming service is Spotify, I haven't made my mind up about Apple Music.

Fucking horrible idea. Fuck the shills trying to get it popular.
Well known musicians need to stop with the "muh piracy" meme

* Enough friends use spotify that I can collab on playlists, see what ppl are listening to, etc
* Good selection (99% of the non-Beatles stuff i want is there)
* Relatively cheap HQ sound (premium => hq streaming)
* Good playlists (both curated and AI)
* Ethical

the porn industry is larger than the world's music industry. agriculture in some states is larger than the world's music industry. Yes, piracy is immoral.

Beatles coming to Spotify on Christmas Eve too senpai
1) I'm broke.
2) Have just finished my studies so no discount.
3) Have already a massive collection that i won't just delete.
4) Feels like being a junky.
Does anyone even use Tidal?

If you are making over a a million per release why the hell would you bitch about maybe 10k going away due to piracy. That's idiotic
>>61180531
He's a shill, idiot.
>>61180296
Die, shill
>>61180481

>>61180549

the vast majority of decent artists aren't making much at all.

spotify is ok though, the only reason i don't use it is because it doesn't have the beatles

they really fucked up the launch of tidal by putting all those mugs on the stage and then making it about piracy, seems insane
and >>61180612 is right, most artists aren't earning anywhere near that amount, tidal fucked it up for a whole lot more people by making it easy to dismiss the artists as greedy or whatever
