When Neil Young asked us to switch to Tidal, I went along and loved that it paid the artists 10x more per stream.

But Tidal is American owned, spotify isn’t…

I’m struggling on this one, a lot of the lil punk bands I love could really use the revenue but, y’know, trade war etc.

Anyone have any thoughts to assuage a guilty conscience on this one?

    Qobuz. It’s French and it pays more than Tidal. It’s a privately owned company. You can also actually buy music from it in addition to streaming. Fuck Tidal.

          Heya! Just wanted to say thanks. I tried Qobuz but had a couple of issues. Just tried Deezer and it’s been fantastic, works with everything and my tiny little obscure bands are all there! It’s like catching up with old friends I haven’t seen in far too long.

          Thanks again!
