Why do y'all who use it get so butthurt that people ain't fukking with it? Spotify been around longer, and apple is so easily integrated into the phones of millions of users, as is google play music, is it hard to see why folks who use these services ain't paying for tidal long term simply to have first day access to albums that will be on the net within hours?

fukk tidal and all y'all who keep whining about the shyt. This thread is like crying about people using chrome instead of Firefox, like the fukk, use what you like and don't worry about the next (hating) man

On here and social media I often see people joke about Tidal like it's the WOAT service or something. Mind you, I'm not subscribed to Tidal or any streaming service but what's the deal?

For instances when an album drops on Tidal, I see ''let me sign up and get this album and unsub real quick'' joke like a thousand times. Like, if you don't fukk with a service that's cool. But what's with the hate?
Because muthafukkas really too broke to spend the extra 10 it cost to have the service monthly. A bunch of fake shining muthafukka.

I'll just say this...if Tidal was owned by Justin Timberlake and not Jay-Z there would be a lot less hate. :sas1:








:sas2:


So, when is that MySpace resurgence ever happening?

Poor rollout from what I've seen. And the price. These are the only two reasons I've seen in the Booth as to why people don't support Tidal. This whole ":mjpls:" bullshyt is just good for daps but it's a false narrative, as far as the Coli is concerned anyway. Reddit and the tech media probably are a bit "biased" but what do you expect?
Again, the price is the fukking same! Even with that, Tidal files sound far better than Spotify or Apple files. If you happen to want even better orgasmic quality sound, you can then upgrade to another level that other services cannot provide.
On exclusivity, Apple has been doing it for years - check Jay Z's American Gangster album or stuff that HBO or Netflix or ESPN etc. It's impossible to conclude that the backlash is fake and was created to make sure that Apple or Spotify's white-only owners keep eating and artists remain slaves. I've used Aspiro/wimp appso with no issues or problems whatsoever. All the music I need is there and in the best quality possible.

Bullshyt. Justin tried to sell us on the new Myspace. How's that working out for him?
Different situations, entirely. One is a paid subscription service going up against streaming Giants. The other is a free service that who's moment has simply ran its course.

Tidal should collaborate with a smartphone maker and create a Tidal Phone.

Apple phones have iTunes and Apple Music
Some Android phones come with Google Play Music
Tidal isn't bloatware last time I checked. You actually gotta download it. The other services are preinstalled.

So yeah thats why I use iTunes occasionally and Google Play Music always. It came with my phones and uploading my own music to Google Play Music is free.

Plus alot of people don't buy music as much as they used to back in the day. If Tidal wants to take off it needs to find some way to get used and appeal to those who ain't gonna go through the effort to download another music app (basically, be pre-installed) and appeal to those who have no intention of buying shyt (let peeps upload their own music for free or for a fee lower than something like spotify). BUT NO JIGGA DON'T CARE BOUT U nikkaS HE JUST WANTS YOUR MONEY which is why Tidal will flop.

I would probably give tidal a chance but I've had Spotify for 2 years now and it only gets better with every update :wow: can't see myself started all over again with all my playlist just for a couple exclusives a year that eventually end up on Spotify anyways :mjlol:

It's black owned that's why best believe if Mark Zuckerberg was the owner of Tidal these sambos would be talking about the service like it's the greatest thing ever created. That is just the reality of the situation and why black business owners tend to not put themselves on their own product.

I remember following various live threads on various sites for Tidal when they were first having that conference, just abut everyone was interested in it and willing to give it a chance, but once they actually started talking about what it entailed in conjunction with their terrible hyperbole and marketing it pushed people away, including me (and Jay's my favorite rapper, and i'll probably be getting a Tidal accoutn once I get a credit card), and that's without the misinformation.
