Tidal is quite good for music. The selection is missing stuff at times, but that usually doesn’t last long since I’m pretty sure that only happens when there’s some kind of contract renegotiation or something.
I’ve heard of it, it’s on my list. My only real qualm is that I want a good “radio”. I don’t do play lists, I just hit Supermix on YT and let it play through. Spotify tried to give me the “average” of all my liked songs, so I’d end up with a Playlist that repeated the same 50 songs or so. YT Music seemed to give me varied music at a similar ratio of my liked genres, which was exactly what I wanted.
It does, though it’s not exactly front and center on certain apps. For instance, in my car, I had to scroll most of the way down the main screen to find the radio stations. They are very good, though. They give a decent mix of stuff you’ve favorited and things you’ve never heard before, with the notable exception of the Steven Wilson radio station, which plays almost exclusively bands that Steven Wilson has been in, which alone is more than enough to fill up a whole radio station.
I think there’s a free trial of the HiFi version, which is what I have. Sound quality is significantly better than other services, since I’m pretty sure they use FLAC when it’s available, and high-bitrate MP3 (I think) for their low-bandwidth mode. Either way, their lowest-quality encoding settings are better than Spotify’s old top-tier ones.
I’ll be honest, it could be recorded through a tin can and I probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference lol. As long as it shows me new songs every now and then, and gives me varied radio playlists, I’m happy.
Interesting, this seems to be a way to stream from Tidal without using a tidal account. I wonder how long that will work, because surely Tidal considers it a hostile way to access their service.
More like noted to check out further, but it looks promising! Big question is functionality with Android Auto, which if it’s just a website, would be unlikely, but still good to have for home use! It has new releases I’d be looking for on it already too, one album literally came out yesterday and it’s on there.

Does it have a radio function similar to that?

Interesting. I’m fine if I gotta scroll a bit, I usually set it up before I leave. I’ll give it a look!

What’s the free music streaming service you use that has no ads? I’d like to try it, I’m obviously in the market.
Lmao buddy resorts to this and then blocks me. What a small human.

Don’t tell em :)

I’ll take that as a thank you :) It’s good, ya?

Sorry - don’t have Android Auto so couldn’t tell you. Please report back if you do?
Will do!

Look, its an edgelord!
Yeah, but that money actually goes to the artists. It’s got one of the best rates for that out of all the streaming services.
