Any of you guys check it out? Got a 30day free trial, love the FLAC streaming, joint even got mixtapes on it. Apparently they got an announcement later.
 
Useless press conference, here I was thinking SHMG or sm was gonna drop -_- *goes back to streaming*
 
Is there anything special about this that makes it different than other streaming tools like Spotify, or is it only getting attention cause Jay-Z is behind it?

Just watched the video on the Tidal website... It seems cool. I just want to know what else they'll be doing besides streaming.

I pay $14.99 a month for the family service with Beats Music. Don't really see a need to switch to this. Props to J**** though.

No, it's just Jay's name's behind it and the sound quality is supposed to be a little better but you wouldn't be able to hear it unless you had $700 headphones or you're in the studio with Timbaland.


Way too many streaming apps out there for free or even half the price.

Is it true some artists are going to be pulling their catalogs from Spotify and other streaming services and making it exclusive for Tidal?

It will be ridiculous for artists to pull their music from other services. With so many people using Spotify, google and beats it would be dumb for them to pull music from the majority of their fans.
 
The difference is the albums will be exclusive to Tidal. So, Jay-Z's next album won't be on iTunes, Spotify, etc. don't even think there will even be a physical disc.
And the artists will get paid each month for the subscription.

Yeah, that's the difference between Tidal and all the other streaming companies. Jay pretty much just changed the game with this.
 
I never really got into the whole streaming thing. Not pandora, not spotify and not this. Cool tho I guess
 
The price, though. :x Over double the price of Netflix. :smh:
 
I think they cut the price to $9.99. Music Videos included? I only see music videos at the mall food court now a days.

I disagree.

There's a few issues, I'm sure some artists will be willing to exclusively give their album to them. But it will be ripped and you can still download it illegally while you keep your cheaper subscription.

iTunes is the biggest digital retailer. People buy from them because it's literally one click on an iPhone. So if the next Jay album is exclusively on Tidal and only on Tidal, do you really believe that many people will pay $20 a month for it or just download it illegally.

I see the attempt but I just don't know how they make a lot of money off this. People don't like paying for music and their monthly fee is double their competitors and has a lot of issues. Albums missing songs, error loading albums and songs. This will also start a streaming war, so then Spotify, google, soundcloud, Beats and so on will have their exclusive artists and their exclusive releases? It's ******* dumb.

And the high def quality songs with this app are gonna eat through most people's data plans.
