@moonwatcher thanks for the update. I was very unhappy with how Tidal dropped the Best Buy program without notification or automatic refunds for the remaining months that were prepaid. To find out your Tidal membership has been dropped after thinking its a connection issues having to spend time trying to fix it, then calling Tidal (thats a joy) to find out they are not aware of any issues, open ticket for 2 days, find out program is cancelled, refund is handled by Best Buy, Best Buy unaware, open another ticket at Best Buy, several days latter follow up, eventually get a prorated refund less than the monthly fee remaining . Who cares at this point🤬 …Done! I do miss Tidal content and features. SQ vs Qobuz in Roon the same here. Will have to grit my teeth and add Tidal at some point…
Just FYI: Tidal is consolidating their HiFi and HiFi Plus tiers
Tidal took away the cheaper yearly subscription I had bought through Best Buy, which really made me mad, but they are doing this soon (see below) to better compete in the marketplace with Amazon, Qobuz, and Apple.
TIDAL
"Starting April 10, 2024, you will now get access to our music library in full lossless, HiRes FLAC, and Dolby Atmos sound for the same price you pay today of $10.99 (plus applicable sales tax)/month.
This is because we’re making it easier for everyone to enjoy best-in-class sound quality by combining our HiFi and HiFi Plus tiers into a single subscription tier called TIDAL.
You will see these changes reflected on your Subscription page on your first billing date on or after April 10, 2024. Thanks for choosing to be a TIDAL subscriber."
Is anyone here a fan of Dolby Atmos mixes? Other than Steven Wilson, who else does them well?

@moonwatcher agreed they should have just let the year term expire rather than cancel mid-year. I never received an email notification unless spam screened it?I also bought one month of a third party software access to transfer all my Tidal info to Qobuz. If I do re-sign up with Tidal I would keep both services and not repeat that hassle. I like that Qobuz has more hi-res offerings but like Tidal's catalog much better. Both integrate together seamlessly in Roon.
