These days I bounce around a lot between services, for the past month though, I’ve been using deezers hifi tier and now that they offer lossless on mobile, I can actually recommend that tier of service to people. It seems to be quite the challenge as even larger names on the industry are having trouble putting together something the user will find enjoyable. I don’t think they will ever be able to put out an algorithm. I definitely meant to type in equal or great album quality compared to other services.Īs far as the loudness, I’ve never noticed it being any louder than other services except for a few cases where tidal didn’t offer its MQA version of the hi res file.Īnd yeah, the UI/UX kill this app for most people, even clicking on a different tab requires plenty of loading time and potential instability.

I guess only time will tell what happens to them, but I sure hope they can turn it around and stick around. Honestly, I'd consider this their biggest offender to the user, and what should be their main priority if they ever wish for this to take off anywhere.įrom the looks of it, they are still struggling to get 100,000 subscribers in the US even at the discounted price they are offering right now. Their UI/UX are also something that will fight you every single time you open the app and want to put on some music. That being said, their lack of actual genre tagging aside from the most generic tags used in the 80's, are extremely unhelpful if looking for anything past surface level music. Comparing to any service, including Tidal, it's apparent that they really go out of their way to find the best possible version of a particular album before putting it on the service.

Qobuz will always have the better mix/master in my findings. MQA) sound any better than Tidals, but what does make them sound better is their better sourcing of albums.
