Spotify may finally launch lossless streaming soon, with recent app hints showing “lossless” and FLAC support up to 24-bit/44.1 kHz 🎧.

Though unconfirmed, this could close the gap with competitors like Apple Music and Tidal.

Users remain cautiously optimistic after past delays 🔄.

Mashable · Spotify lossless might actually be coming soonBy Stan Schroeder

Gikk fra #Tidal til #Qobuz for et par måneder siden, så her er en kort oppsummering

Pro:
- ikke 🇺🇸
- betaler artister mer (€0.018024 vs ~€0.01)
- ok apper på tvers av plattform (bil, tv, pc, mobil)
- (valgfri) høy lydkvalitet
- labler er like søkbare som artister/låter
- du kan kjøpe musikken uten DRM!

Con:
- noe dårligere utvalg (varierer med sjanger)
- svake algoritmer for forslag
- dårlig på genererte spillelister
- sjangersnobberi (jazz og klassisk fremheves)
- ingen musikkvideoer

Honest question, don't want to discuss anything except for the question...

Sorry, I know this sounds rude, but I'm very low on spoons, and would like to focus on what I am trying to explore.

:ablobcatheadphones:

I've been using Spotify for many years. Autistic me enjoys it, as it usually works as it should, and it has the music that I want.

But, I know Spotify has its flaws. And, I have a family account, so it's not just me, it's some other folks involved too.

I've been looking for alternatives. I wanna move away from the big names like Apple, Amazon, and YouTube. So... I found some very positive things about Tidal. And, it looks like they have a family plan as well. They seem to offer a service that could transfer my playlists as well, as I have many, and I would not want to make them all from scratch again.

There is a 30 day free trial for new folks on Tidal. And I would like to try it out... But, seeing things are a bit crazy here these days, and I'm low on spoons... I don't want to make a lot of effort and then be disappointed.

So, are there folks here that went from Spotify to Tidal?
If so, can you share your experiences?
Maybe you've switched from another provider to Tidal?
Please do share if Tidal is offering you what you expected...
And, can someone maybe tell mea bit more about their family plan? The info on the page is very limited, and I don't want to create an account just yet. First, I'd like to know a bit more about the service.

Thanks in advance! :bear_guitar: :bear_dance:
