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.
