Biggest issue I see so far is that there is no 'connect' type streaming possible to my Samsung Soundbar, but I bet I can still cast so it'll be fine. I wasn't very impressed with Tidal's apps anyway.

I just looked into it and it might be. Thing is I now have a family subscription for 17 euros which only my mother uses. She's just gotten used to Tidal so it'll be a stretch for her to switch.

I'll keep it in mind for now, thanks for the tip!

I understand haha, at least you know you have options should you/she want to make the switch sometime. Certainly use up your subscription first tho!

I had another look at things and I'll stick with Tidal. As I read it, Tidal was originally European anyway (Swedish) and it's still Europe based even though they also have a location in the US. All those musicians that bought into it sold their majority (Jay-Z sold 80% of his shares).

They are transparent about what they pay artists and are second to Qobuz on that. Qobuz is more for scouting music and even though I wouldn't mind doing that sometimes, I can't see my mum browsing catalogs to find hidden gems.
