No to The farce that is MQA. No to canned playlists.

Tidal is great for those who have not invested in digital libraries. No issue there.

Yeah, like anyone here has a library the size of Tidal's and continues to buy all the new music Tidal adds every week, duh!

Sometimes the pride of ownership is more important than the convenience of accessibility.  Old habits are hard to break.  I've been in this hobby for nearly 50 years and part of the appeal is collecting music...specifically music on some kind of a disc that spins.  Anything anyone collects, be it coins, stamps, books or music has a value to the collector that goes beyond simple accessibility.  I think the digital age in general and more specifically the streaming capability we have now in our systems has impacted the collector aspect of being an audiophile.  I have invested in vinyl and digital libraries and I still enjoying listening to my CDs and LPs but TIDAL has opened up a whole new world of accessibility and discovery.  If I can grow beyond my need to own all the music I listen to then others can also.  Just as analog and digital coexist in our hobby I also think the concepts of owning and renting music can and should happily coexist.

Well, if a library closes down I can always buy books.  The same with music streaming services.

Tidal and other similar services offer the opportunity to discover and experience far more music than will ever be available in a public library.  If money is the issue then open a free Spotify account.  But don't even try to compare what streaming services offer versus the comparatively meager content available in a public library.

True, I have some CD's and old tapes that will never be available for streaming and still enjoy them.

First off, I LOVE TIDAL :D Well worth the $20.38 a month! And I love their "Playlist", I just favored 2, "1957" and "1977"! :D

I didn't know there were Masters playlists, will give it a go.

Suppose I should get the A+ upgrade to go with it.
