Tidal is great for the simple fact that it offers master quality recordings. As an audiophile that is important to me. It pairs extremely well with some good headphones. The album and song selection is also good and on par with other streaming services l. Highly recommended.

Good streaming service. You can stream songs in CD Quality which as of the time of writing, isn't possible on Spotify. The recommendations are great if you're into hip-hop and pop, but otherwise its pretty weak. If you're into the social aspect of Spotify (seeing friends listening activity, shared playlists) there's always Last.fm as an alternative, but it's not a feature of the Tidal itself. If you have the peripherals to warrant caring about a cd quality vs mp3 file, I would recommend with 1 caveat. MQA, the "master" that will appear next to some tracks isn't honest, this isn't Tidal's fault per se, but tracks with this label are advertised as from the studio the artist produced the track in themselves, but it's really just a form of compression that can be very lossy and introduce distortion into a very audible range.

The difference in sound compared to other streaming services is immediately noticeable, with remarkable clarity and depth. Absolutely worth for a dollar.

Paired w my 4K fire stick I use for hifi music streaming at 24/192. Master files sound beautiful too. This is the setup I use it with.

Absolute best sound quality of any of the streaming services out there.
