Tidal vs. Spotify

I find Deezer a good subsitute for spotify. Elite is out for Deezer which boast higher rez.

I did a tidal trial, its, well think a little better than deezer and spotify but think the trial is only normal quality low rez and not high rez.

I do like tidal even at standard version ($9.95/mth) but on trial now and given a choice probably keep it.The selection of newer releases is rather alright compared to the older selections, so this may still work partially for me.

I feel besides resolution issue, each provider has a different sonic flavor (not talking about absolute resolution). Spotify has a bit livelier sound as compared to Deezer (Elite), more relaxed.

Does anyone share my thoughts of just jumping from providers around every month or so.

IMO, if you are primarily listen to the similar selections through any service, then it makes sense to get the music stored as your own collection.

I am wanting to discover and rediscover both old and new music.
