That's right! I have a code for a 30 trial that I'll give to one of you lucky AC members. I'll post it at 8pm EST. So be ready! Only catch is that you will use it!

Anyone ready?

First one to follow the directions on the card properly will have it.

This code has been claimed, it will no longer work.

Enjoy! :thumb:

Let us know who got it!

Got past that. That day/month/year format is weird to enter. But when I click register nothing seems to happen.

The coupon is only for ONE member. If you tried it and it doesn't work, you didn't get to it first.

Ahh...that makes sense.

So it appears you are using it and are impressed? How deep is the catalog? From what little I have read it will be about half the depth of Tidal to start out until the licensing issues are worked out.

Yes, very impressed. Catalog isn't what Tidal is but I think most of that is the licensing so the catalog is much bigger than what we see in the USA until that's all sorted. Sonically it's amazing. I've got some more testing to do though which I hope to do tonight.

Tidal vs Quboz sound wise?

I thought it was obvious based on my above post, no?

So you are saying you like Tidal better? :duh: :duh:

Did I say something to upset you?
That was a bit harsh, no?
Or am I misreading the whole thing. Intent can often be lost on these forums.

Awhile back, I signed up for a Qobuz email notification for when they launched. Never heard anything. Did a search yesterday and the only thing from the company in the first page of results was that same link. Not sure WTF is going on.
If as asserted earlier, the catalog 'isn't what Tidal is', Ill probably pass for now. I am aware of quite a bit of stuff not on Tidal, and their search functions don't always find what they do have (won't parse multiple or partial search terms, must be entered exactly).
Wish Apple would get into the lossless streaming market, as they carry the biggest catalog, but they have shown no interest. The subset of people who care about SQ is small. Most listeners are fine with 64kbps Pandora.

Just went through the process, it never asked for code , it just came up 30 day free trial, put in credit card info, downloaded the apple app to my IPad, IPod, and MacBook. It’s up and running (streaming). Sounds pretty good.
-
Where are you all going? Here's what I get (I'm in the US of A) :

Doesn't work. It still won't give you access to full streaming even if you do that.
-
Sorry, not sure how it went threw, but on my MacBook it acts like I from the United Kingdom. I’m definitely in the USA, Very strange.

So you're able to stream entire albums?

The Qobuz rep told us these initial trials they offered would be hosted from the UK, then later convert to US.

Well it's not accepting any payments from me. It knows my CC/Paypal is not based in the UK.

I did not have to enter any CC information with the Qobuz promo card.

Are you inviting your blind friends over for a listening session?
I think so! This weekend I'm going to run a blind test at a GTG. :green:

Sorry, I don't get that humor of poking fun at someone's disability. You know exactly what I'm referring to.

Sorry remember I said I was dumb and also old so I don't know what you are referring to but please message me and fill me in.

Something to try, at this screen type in your email and click on the blue square. They say they will notify you when available.
Then in the top corner click on try for free. It should take you to the next screen put in your CC/ PayPal info and you should get 30 day trial. Good luck Ken
This is the screen shot I received , the blue box try it for free.

Then I guess either I missed a post somewhere or I don't get what your point is.
Summary:
Promo codes work. Ok.
One was given away here. Ok.
Someone says they were able to join Qobuz from the US by going to the create account page. Ok.
You offer a link to the same preview page and show you have a promo code. Ok.
Qobuz streaming access is blocked from me due to being in the US. It's not clear how that individual was able to bypass that.
I don't have a promo code or see where to get one.

He just gave you one. Probably too late now as someone else probably used it. :lol:

Um, what Jason said. That *was* a live code a few minutes ago. You're welcome :)

How was I supposed to know that?
Why does this stuff always have to be harder than it needs to?

The two codes are different. I thought it was obvious what he was doing. It's really not that hard.

If that's your takeaway you miss the point. The thread went several different directions. I tried to summarize in order to make that clear, and not just for me, but for anyone else who may be reading and confused. Yes, thank you. Great. But if you go over the thread you'll see that there's no context for me to just know what that photo meant. In other words, a typical audio thread.

Well, another nice fellow who seemed to have no trouble understanding and then following the instructions, is listening to his Qobuz trial right now. He seems most appreciative. Go figure.

I’d love to try Qobuz if anyone has an extra code. Thanks.
