shellylh Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) Seems like I like to listen to a lot of stuff that is not on Tidal.

shellylh Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) Canceled my subscription to Tidal. If they get it working correctly on Snow Leopard and Yosemite and improve their search on ios, I may join again.

Grahame Posted December 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 This is Interesting Tidal seems to use the same Global Identifiers ( accessible by the share / by email copyable link) e.g Artist Alison Krauss. = tidalhifi.com/artist/6602 Album New Favorite by Alison Krauss. = tidalhifi.com/album/3044220 Track New Favorite by Alison Krauss. = tidalhifi.com/track/3044233 and as seen before entities are different for a UK and a US account as an example , playable on UK Account, not on US Account Paper Airplane by Alison Krauss http://tidalhifi.com/album/6043300 I've a couple of days overlap for a UK registered account and a US one, so have a few days window for further exploration as time allows and have accessed both via the Web interface and the (windows) Desktop App, from the US, so will explore further, but its late now so will leave you with the following UK Account desktop App US Account desktop App 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shellylh Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Restarted my tidal subscription. I'm going to give it a month before deciding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlSeibert Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 I signed up for the Tidal trial. And ickStream And installed the ickStream plugin on my Squeezebox server. And it seems to work! (Seems because I haven't gone in the den yet to actually play anything through the Squeezebox. It browses music and appears to be playing as I look at the server interface.) I like the Tidal web interface so far. It's easy to navigate and they have pretty much the whole catalogs of the two artists I clicked on as a test. (Leonard Cohen and Tom Waits. But that's too easy. Let's see how they do with Fausto Papetti ;-) One issue though. In the Tidal web interface, it's playing only one song at a time. The play queue shows a list of songs, but I can't get it to play them in sequence. Bug? Or have I not done something? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlSeibert Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 (edited) Update. Yes. It's playing just fine through the squeeze box. You can even search through squeeze commander. And both the Android version of Tidal and the ickStream app do not seem to suffer from the one song at a time issue. Maybe that's some sort of one-off with a particular Chrome version or something. Another update: it was upgrading chrome took care of the problem. Excellent. Edited December 6, 2014 by CarlSeibert 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexicanDragon Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 I get one song at a time issue on Android if I do songs, but I just click on album instead. Listen to music so much lately. I hope they don't have Colin music. **BRENT** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jp11801 Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 I am loving Tidal just wish it recommended better, I recall MOG talking be to some strange cool places via the recommendation feature. Also Prince Sign of the Times sounds like the selectively used two different masters as some songs are loud as fuck and others have plenty of headroom? All things considered I'm still very satisfied. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlSeibert Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 I notice that they don't have many playlists yet. Beats does have good playlists. But Tidal has a radio feature. That's really a good thing. Now I'm getting a lot of dropouts and rebuffering through ickStream. (Which is in beta, after all). No problems with the Tidal web client, though.

MexicanDragon Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Back and forth on same song with Spotify and Tidal. I'm canceling Spotify. **BRENT** So I forgot to cancel last month, but I canceled this morning when I remembered it. I checked the usage of mobile data between Tidal and Spotify from Nov 29th to today. Tidal: 7.72GB Spotify: 609MB I think I did that much because I downloaded a couple more albums to compare with Tidal. **BRENT** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Chalk Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 Tidal == good customer service. I complained on Facebook about them posting country music after the album i was listening to finished, and they helped me figure out that apparently I had accidentally hit their country playlist on the way out the previous time, and how to clean it up. This, despite how rude I had become. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grahame Posted December 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 Got a "Happy Christmas, renew and have 3 months for 30% off" email from my cancelled UK account. Will cancel renewal on my US account to see if it is reproducible .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genetic Posted December 25, 2014 Report Share Posted December 25, 2014 Hello Head-casers, I'm using both Spotify and Tidal and I cant see why I would stay on Tidal (Canada). Seems to me that we are again at the wrong end of the stick. As with our ridiculous weak Netflix catalogue we are again the '' dindon de la farce''...;-) On the other hand Spotify is much generous with it's catalogue. If only the sound was as good as Tidal.

jvlgato Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 My ickstream stopped working on NY Eve to NY day. I had to reinstall/ reconfigure like new, then it worked again. No idea why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MexicanDragon Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 http://lnc.hr/61Mb0 That is all I could find, but I don't think it gets anything better than what standard trial is anymore.
