I have been subscribed to Tidal for well over 3 years now . I tried spotify and (amazon when it first came out) and was not satisfied with the sound quality . Tidal has gotten better over time although I still dislike it's push on hip hop.. Furthermore I dislike even more it's push on MQA.
It's nice to finally have an alternative.
I dislike Amazon's misleading "HD" terminology regarding standard "CD" quality sound . Unfortunately the average dummy will buy into it cause they were also happy with the previous mp3 format..
This being said I'm extremely happy that they (Amazon) are not utilizing MQA. MQA should have been dead on arrival and hopefully this may be a final nail in its coffin.
More choice is always better for the consumer.. For now Im sticking with Tidal but it'll be interesting to see how this plays out..
