      • Agret on 18/03/2018 - 20:57

        Google Music lets you upload your own MP3s into it for free though so you can put all your favourite tracks into it.

        • spaceflight on 18/03/2018 - 21:48

          So does Apple

        • Agret on 18/03/2018 - 23:50

          @spaceflight: Have been looking into this right now and from what I can gather you need to be an Apple Music subscriber so it's not free like Google Musics song storage.

          If you subscribe to Apple Music, you'll get iCloud Music Library included as part of your $9.99 monthly subscription; otherwise, you can subscribe to Apple's iTunes Match service and pay $24.99 a year to store your iTunes library (up to 100,000 songs) in iCloud.

          Google puts a limit on the number of songs you can upload, and it's rather large at 50,000 music files (free storage).

      • chris666 on 19/03/2018 - 00:57

        • rizza on 19/03/2018 - 23:43

          @PainToad: but you can port from Spotify to Google.

          I have used Spotify, Deezer and Google. Personally I will use whatever is cheap or free.

          If the playlists suck, I will port from one to the other. I haven't paid for streaming in a long long time.

          I only wish Deezer allowed for student memberships as they do in some countries.

        • [Deactivated] on 20/03/2018 - 12:02

          I found Google Music rubbish, and it's not available on as many devices. Deezer is on just about every device now, including Fitbit and Xbox One.

      • cortex on 19/03/2018 - 11:13

        The worst thing about the Google music subscription is how it bundles youtube red and removes all youtube ads! I miss all those ads :(

    • AustriaBargain on 18/03/2018 - 17:49

      I actually prefer tidal over Apple Music and Spotify. But it’s too expensive. I use Apple Music because I can share it on the family plan with five others for just $18 pm, and we all have apple gear anyway.

      • 1Kenobi on 18/03/2018 - 17:57

        • AustriaBargain on 18/03/2018 - 18:07

          Does that work with the family plan? I thought it had to use ny CC.

        • itsfree on 18/03/2018 - 18:15

          @AustriaBargain: Yes, it does work with the family plan, as long as you subscribe using the account that you loaded the credit onto. Works for iCloud family subscriptions too.

        • AustriaBargain on 18/03/2018 - 20:11

          damn, that means I’ve been wasting $4.95 a month ever since they allowed iCloud data sharing :(

          As well as the family Apple Music account, I subscribe to Netflix through iTunes as well. I expect Stan would be the same. So load up with discounted iTunes cards and get the discount on the lot.

    Be-aware that different regions have different Catalogs through Tidal. The Australian (and Hong Kong which I tried as it was the cheapest per month for HiFi) catalog doesn't have as much as the USA catalog.

      No, currently for the Google Home native (non-casting, just voice initiated playback) support for is a no for tidal, no for deezer, no for Apple Music, no for Amazon Prime Music …. just yes to Spotify and yes to google music. Annoying, a smart speaker should support everything, including their competitor's streaming services. I don't want to buy an ecosystem, I want to buy a single product that then integrates with everything else from everyone (or as much as practical… and support for 6 music streaming services is definitely do-able).

    The HiFi version of Tidal has the best quality of the streaming services, but it doesn’t suit me being very hip hop oriented. But if you like that it is pretty good apparently.

    Verified 6 months free trial. No VPN required.
    High quality setting is already pretty decent, even better than Deezer and Spotify (in my opinion).
    Interface is beautiful (again, in my opinion).

    • spaceflight on 18/03/2018 - 21:52

      Interesting comment about the sound.

      Tidal high quality is AAC 320 Kbps (which is what you'll get if you sign up to Spotify's Premium subscription or Deezer's Premium+

      • maybe a bot on 18/03/2018 - 23:06

        could be differences in the mastering quality

    • Cheap Rich Guy on 29/03/2018 - 00:40

      Tidal streams the music louder than Spotify. All other things being equal, even a 1dB increase in sound has been known to make someone think the quality was better. The FLAC stream will sound a bit better to some people than Spotify’s org-vorbis stream of 320kbps if you’re using high quality equipment. However, the level of difference will vary depending on the type of music being played.

  • trishmapow on 18/03/2018 - 21:27

    Not as good as the Deezer one (still available), particularly given that you have to give away credit card details. I always stick to PayPal in these 'free' trials to avoid dodgy charges, you can remove the automatic payment immediately.

        • The interface is trash
        • the playlists havent been updated in years,
        • The iOS app is horrible.
        • No social features, which some people don't care about but I've got a bunch of people I follow in Spotify to discover new music and it works well..
        • No desktop app, if you care about that
        • No lastfm, if you care about that
        • Making playlists is pretty rudimentary
        • No following artists or anything
        • Spotify connect/remote is missing, obv

        but

        • the auto-radio features work surprisingly well
        • Chromecast Audio integration is tight
        • It's dead easy to load music to your phone if you have shitty data or connection
        • its nice to not have to switch apps if you have a bunch of music stored in Google Music.
        • YT Music/YT Red is a pretty sweet bonus - especially the former if you have a google home, since it will find pretty much anything

        Not much to distinguish them in the catalogue space. I picked three stupidly obscure bands ive been listening to lately,

        • All three did fine on Paysage d'Hiver and Angel Eyes (although they all lumped multiple artists with that name together)
