Greetings From Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man!

So I got a 30 day free HIFI trial for the Tidal streaming service and I got to say. This is just garbage LOL It's actually worse than Apple Music streaming yo. (Use Google Music) Like they have good variety and you can customize your own playlist and download for offline use but the actual music quality is what is supposed to justify this 19.99 a month purchase. Boy does it not live up to it.

All the files are supposed to be FLAC format which is the highest format for music there is and to be honest it doesn't ****in sound like it whatsoever. My mp3 320kbps songs sound WAAAAAY more impressive on the music player I have now. Which is Neutron, pretty much the best Music Player that exists at the moment.

Also for those of you who are saying "Hey you're probably not listening to it with the right headphones" or "Hey you pleeb your listening device has a bad audio driver" Nah b. I have some VSD5's and a LG G3 that comes with the best audio drivers you can find on a phone besides the newer LG models. So don't try me.

If anyone has this installed. Why? If anyone has use this app before let me know about your thoughts on it. I think it's gonna fail soon though because man only people using this have to be Kanye stans and people who don't know what the hell they're doing when it comes to music quality. Anywho thanks for reading.





-Excelsior!

Never heard of it.

19.99 a month LMFAO please
It's the Microsoft music app, free version let's you use your own collection by syncing to OneDrive over Wi-Fi (or data if you don't care). But it's got very few features. I use it because I run Windows on my desktop and Android on my phone, so this is a hassle-free and unintrusive way to listen to music since I don't update my music collection all that often. $9.99 a month for streaming the full 40 million+ selection, and you can save anything offline. There's a free trial if you wanna give it a go, I haven't yet: .

I don't really recommend it heartily unless you're a Windows user with integrated OneDrive, though...

But yeah 19.99 a month for Tidal's selection + that crappy UI...

I tried it for the month TLOP came out so I could listen to it throughly. I canceled after I had my fill.

They were definitely uncompressed lossless files though from what I heard on the album. I use Audio-Technica ATH-M70X studio headphones. I mostly listen to vinyl's on my record player but even if I listened to stream only, I wouldn't pay that much for such a limited catalog of artists.

Already using Google Music plus it comes with a ton of perks like Youtube Red for instance.

Well I can't download it now that my subscription is canceled. I will try out Neutron though.

They're definitely awesome headphones that'll last forever. Crystal clear and flat, you can turn them up to max and be able to listen comfortably loud without blowing your eardrum, bass is also super deep. They're fully adjustable in multiple ways and built really well, you can wear them for hours and hours without your ears starting to hurt. Also they come with multiple cable types(like coils) and lengths, that can be plugged and unplugged which is super convenient.

Definitely the best pair I've had for listening and can work well for mixing.

Oh wow I've never seen those HD800's before those are really nice. I want now O___O, I think I might start saving for those, really fly and I like how the cups look a lot. Reminds me of bowsers shell for some reason. Not to mention those drivers are crucial.
