The problem is I've cancelled my subscription last week, though I still have until mid next month to use it. And does that mean they're upgrading my subscription from Premium to Hi-Fi membership? I'm in exactly the same position. I cancelled recently and was rather surprised they sent me this. I've emailed them asking about it but I expect no reply 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike13 Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 My guess is that they renamed the non basic subscription from $17.99 to $23.99 a month. The basic subscription was the same as Spotify. If you add Roon for $17 a month that’s about $41 a month, $492 a year. Good thing you can VPN Tidal for about $10 still. Makes it cheaper than Spotify.

Steever Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Cancelled my Tidal y'day. Was of two minds doing it as the Qobuz catalogue isn't as big but went ahead anyway. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpasquill Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Said goodbye to Tidal today as I just don’t need as many services. I accidentally signed up to a full year of Qobuz so I’ll just use that via Roon for the year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benny Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 (edited) Just cancelled my tidal subscription after years.... Qobuz for me too Edited April 30, 2021 by benny 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicForever Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) Anyone else having problems with Tidal dropping out this afternoon? My download speed is currently somewhere around 220mbps- so it's probably not NBN for a change. Edited May 1, 2021 by MusicForever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripitaka Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) no probs for me today I might add that I have the buffer size cranked right up in my streamer, which I've found helps stability Edited May 1, 2021 by tripitaka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicForever Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Mine's running through a Chromecast ultra- so no buffer adjustment. But Netflix runs perfectly. Tidal is dropping out inconsistently. It might run okay for 3-4 tracks then only 1. Last time it did this, it would only run for a minute, then buffer. I'm in metro Brissie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripitaka Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Just curious if anyone else has ever noticed their Tidal streaming quality reset itself from 'HiFi' down to 'High'. It only happened once, I am certain I didnt change it myself but I suppose anything is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Perth Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Hi Anyone using Tidal connect to connect to Volumio through a Raspberry Pi, Im having an issue where it will play some master tracks but not others, for example on there new list in tidal would not play latest 21 pilots track but played the next one billie ellish thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicForever Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Back to "normal" on Tuesday. No buffering. In inverted quotes because of the way that it likes to spontaneously log me out every-so-often and can't play an album without track breaks through Chromecast.

Willmax Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) I was looking at The Fleetwood Mac catalogue on Tidal, 20 out of 24 albums have all been converted to MASTER i.e. MQA sadly, the most popular album/tracks, pretty much everything. Led Zeppelin - 100% Luckily none of the albums from Pink Floyd it seems. Edited May 15, 2021 by Willmax 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrews_melb Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 The amount of albums ive had of late that id saved as favourites then a few months later gone back to listen to, to find them no longer available is driving me crazy. Ive had tidal for years, top tier, and keep thinking they’ll expand their missing artists not actually loose them. this isnt just ‘new release/exclusive’ albums, ive had Dope Lemon’s first album, captain beefhearts trout mask replica and at one point Alt-J’s second album in my favs, to find them gone now. Makes it hard to justify the tidal v spotify/other argument. Those albums arnt overly extreme/rare. Same as courtney barnett, she has some songs but no full discography. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just ask you to subscribe to another streaming service for the lossless version. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps that’s the issue and Tidal, as you say, just aren’t able to hold onto those artists. My Tidal subscription expired today actually and I have no regrets having gone over to Qobuz.

Andrews_melb Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 @cheekyboy keith i think you’re right, seen a lot of Qobuz talk on here of late. Going to sus it out. only thing keeping me on Tidal now is that i pay around $6p/m from a deal with third man records vault sub. Just annoys me that they say they pay artists top $ per stream or whatever yet fail to get some mainstream artists on their platform. I know this is a bit of a rant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you will find that Qobuz pay approximately four times per stream to artists than Tidal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anandpkumar Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Yeah, me too got the same offer - tempting for the price. I've already got Qobuz, but for $2 it's a no-brainer. Can now compare between both Tidal and Qobuz for an extended period! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
