The problem is that they didn't really talk about their aims though. It's not even clear in interviews with Jay-Z for example.
We can talk about and discuss this, because we try to understand it, but the general public may not understand what they are aiming for. They see a bunch of BIG names and that musicians should get more money for their music, but it doesn't get clear how this works.
Don't get me wrong - I want to pay for my music. I buy my favourite stuff on CD and vinyl and I have a spotify premium account to listen on my computer and I discovered so much through that.

We don't know yet but the press says that Tidal is own by artists (at least Jay-Z), so there's no company in between to take billions with their music!
And you're right, it depends also on the record companies, but many artists supporting Tidal are in charge of their career and don't depend on their record companies (Madonna is the best example of them all, of course).
Yes, it seems Jay-Z owns the majority and the 16 others own 3% each. At least that's what I read somewhere.

Spotify gives $0.006 to $0.0084 per stream (source) while the website has annual revenues around 1 billion. Maybe these singers have "enough money" but it's not a reason for them to get robbed by the streaming websites!
But does Tidal give more money per stream? We don't know that yet, right?
As I said, it also depends on the record label.
-
It's the same master as the CD, so it's not sounding that good to begin with.
Apart from that I can't complain about the production/pressing quality, but others seem to be have sound problems.

So... have you joined Tidal? I just left Spotify. I like the idea (and design) of Tidal. I truly hope it will become a new flexible and creative platform for all kind of artists. If all those artists (owners) decide to leave Spotify, it will be chaos at first.
I'm not joining and won't leave spotify.
All these singers who own Tidal already have enough money and I guess other artists won't really get much more money for their music compared to other streaming services, because after all everything depends on the contract between artist and record label, not those sites.
Where are the "smaller" musicians who could really benefit from this?

My RH vinyl sounds very clear and there's no surface noises/clicks/skips etc. at all.

What is this shit?
Just as bad as most of the mixes for LFL.
This song deserves something better. Just release the acapella and the stems, so we can do it ourselves. Thank you!

I think if you don't own the best equipment, hi-fi-streaming isn't really THAT important or even noticeable. I mean, most people listen on their mobile devices or on their computer speakers when they stream music. Audiophiles own expensive equipment and buy CDs or vinyl.
When it comes to streaming, Spotify premium with 320 kbit-quality is perfectly ok for the majority of listeners.

Is Kiley Dean Pregnant?
I think it's just that awful costume she's forced to wear every time. Doesn't suit her at all!
-
Great performance!!!!!! That 2nd outfit is the same she wears on the "JOA picture" on the super deluxe of Rebel Heart, right?
-
This stream is not as good quality-wise, but works better for me:

Within one hour
I meant the red carpet stream.

Can we also find out who mastered the album?? I'd like to have a word about this!
It was mastered by David and Mercy.

I wonder if or when it starts though. There are already pictures from the red carpet on twitter, so...
