    I switched to tidal. Recently had a huge price drop to compete with Spotify and Apple Music. It’s not perfect, but it has lossless audio, and works well for my needs

      I started using Tidal when I learned they where the ones who pay the artists the most. I don’t know if it’s still true today tho.

        Yeah that was part of my motivation as well. I’m unsure how that will change now with their significant price drop, I was happy paying the previous prices, as it was like the cost of buying 3 $10 CDs a month, and I listened to considerably more music than that

      Does tidal have the feature Spotify does where you can transfer what’s playing from one device to another? I use that somewhat frequently.
