    This compared to tidal?

      A dollar/month more expensive, but offers REAL lossless audio at up to 24 bit 192 KHz (Tidal's MQA is not lossless and, according to some, not even sourced from high resolution masters much of the time).

      We need Amazon Music HD here in Australia to help drive Tidal and Qobuz pricing down…

      Hi res of qobuz compared to tidal MQA no contest according to this:

      Thread 'MQA Deep Dive - I published tracks on Tidal to test MQA' https://www.head-fi.org/threads/mqa-deep-dive-i-published-tr…

    New (cheaper) Tidal tier. Good for those who don't want MQA but want lossless streaming that's a bit cheaper than Qobuz's Studio Premier tier.

    Please PM me if you are keen on joining a Family Subscription. I have 2 more spots available. Yes there is a risk in the T&C but I will outline the arrangement with you so everything is clear.
