  • I was on Tidal forever ago. To answer the most important question, no the higher quality audio files aren’t total snake oil. Certain offerings definitely sound better. Amazon Music generally offers higher sound quality though. Tidal also do pay artists better, but Napster is the best about payment if I’m not mistaken (ironic as fuck).

    As for the app though… It’s been a few years, but this is where everything that offers sound quality goes to shit. The desktop player was ass and the website was ass. It didn’t know how to handle Last.fm and other things I’d consider basics for Audiophiles. Amazon Music’s UI was even worse, I cancelled it after 2 days.

    Spotify has the best value proposition. Hulu+Spotify for 10 bucks is good. I also question how long Tidal will be able to continue existing.






  • It’s less that the stereotype isn’t true and more that it applies to everybody. American stereotypes are widely based on racist enforcement of laws. Obviously there are italian crime families, but there are white crime families like the Sacklers that do far worse shit, but we don’t stereotype white people as criminal masterminds. Italians are considered white in America now though, so they have less stereotypes attached to them.

    If America was less racist, you wouldn’t hear about country of origin in crime. I’ve had people of all races sell me cocaine out of the back of the sketchy restaurant.
