The best part about MQA bankruptcy..

I'm still thinking they'll keep MQA going in some capacity, but I wouldn't want Tidal to go down with it as collateral damage. I'm not a MQA fan/hater, but I do like Tidal.

Bankruptcy applies to individuals. Administration is an option in the UK for insolvent companies. MQA's has been heavily loss making for the past couple of years.  Administration involves handing over control of the company to an administrator who is effectively given control over the company and its future.

In my opinion nothing beats a great sacd and a great sacd player

i have both Qobuz, tidal  and vinyl Oh its

crazy how we fall for hype everyone ran towards the tidal wave. And 

got smoked. 

That’s a shame, not that I’m a MQA fan but less options for us, and less competition if Tidal fails. Also, there really needs to be a solution to large hi rez digital files and streaming. Streaming is the future and that includes Mobile streaming like ROON ARC, which is amazing…I’d hate to put bandwidth before quality and stay stuck in the mp3 days…that’s awful. We’ve evolved so much with Quobuz, Tidal and ROON. Sorry to go on about this….

This all reminds me of the cell phone and IP services in the US. The US is close to last in the world for cell and internet bandwidth. But as companies in the US have done for ever they charge a premium for a service that is 10 years old in other countries. Then they go full court press marketing that they are providing the “best tech”. I travel around the world and can attest to this. I can travel on subway underground in another country and have fabulous cell service but at home in the US I can’t get coverage in my home. Is the issue with Mqa mqa? Or is it that they are they sabotaged by the infrastructure that they rely on? In todays world bandwidth should be cheap snd unlimited but we continue to be spoon feed limited amounts snd intentionally slowed down service but our monthly bills continue to rise.
