Some of y’all just like basking in depression and misery. Upset when prices go up, upset when a company lowers prices.
Tidal is generally very highly regarded among those who seeking a music streaming service that’s higher quality and pays out to artists. It’s no surprise this gets a positive shine.
Considering this was written by a reviewer, a person paid to give opinions…
I use Tidal and love it for HiFi playback. They’re kinda like Criterian for music and take the time to capture high bitrate archival masters. It’s pretty cool.
I’m not upset at prices changing, don’t put words in my mouth. I’m disappointed to see an ad here. I don’t care about this Subscription Service (With High-Res Audio and Atmos!), I do care about not being advertised to. If I wanted to know about the price of a service I’d go to the service and competitors directly.
This is the second time you’ve put words in my mouth to derogate my opinion. I never described myself as surprised, and I can imagine you’re struggling to believe that I am because it isn’t true.
The verge is an advertisment bureau doing what they do, and I’m not surprised to find them shilling, I’m disappointed to find you (and so many others) actively supporting- no, insisting on being advertised to.
Seems like you’re asserting that the article is sponsored content without being disclosed, in violation of FTC guidelines. Seems like a pretty serious claim that borders on libel. Do you have any proof of your allegations?
Article specifically calls how they’re axing military and first responder discounts, how you still get upcharged for HiFi if you use their DJ Integration feature, and how they’re nixing the free tier.
The article is not an advertisement; it contains some good news for consumers and some bad news for consumers. The notable bit is the good news, hence it’s the headline. And it’s notable exactly because it’s good news — most everyone else is raising prices across the board.
Yes, it is. It may not be interesting to you, but it is (as others said) noteworthy when a company bucks the trend of the industry.
This type of story is business journalism — it’s not world news or politics, but it’s still news. And the article isn’t as rosy as the headline — they are still upcharging for the HiFi service if you used the DJ Integration feature (no idea what this is, I don’t use Tidal), and they’re axing military and first responder discounts.
I initially upvoted this comment, but since every other comment you’ve made is weird and combative, you’ve somehow made me stop agreeing with you. It’s an odd feeling.
This is just an ad read.

Fuck this person’s paid opinions.
The Verge is a site focusing on tech products and services.
I cannot believe anyone would find it surprising that they talk about tech products and services.

Get over yourself mate.
cope
insane cope
I don’t think you know what that word means.
To be miserable somewhere else.

Dude. You have an opinion, huh? shut up with this ridiculous arrogance. You don’t deserve it, and neither do they deserve your haughty tone.
Provide your opinion next time, without whipping your ego out like a hobo on a train
Why are people downvoting this? I sense strong sarcasm
I appreciate you but no, i was burning him
You really weren’t, though.
Who’re you, kid showbiz?

Take me to court, I’d love to see what a well crafted subpoena would do in discovery.
Edit: Actually, that’s unironically a great point. I should put in a complaint to the FTC.
You okay love? You need a hug?
I think they just need attention.

You don’t know the Verge, perhaps
This is just a good news and they are reporting it as such
I am too familiar with this gaudy website and its concept of journalism.
Ok. So journalistically, the key points to get across here are:
How would you have reported the news? Would you have done something differently?
Not.
It’s not news.
Yes, it is. It may not be interesting to you, but it is (as others said) noteworthy when a company bucks the trend of the industry.

for when you want to legitimize your advertising
Is it only news if it invokes strictly trite and sorrowful commentary?
Nothing can make it news.
There is no presentation that can turn an article about a price drop into anything but an ad.
Welp, I have nothing to say to that kind of attitude. It’s a fairly decent day across much of the US and Europe for an uplifting walk outside.
imagine i am hitting you with a newspaper
What about a price hike? If Netflix or Spotify increased their prices, would that be news?
Yes because things are only allowed to ever be bad.
I would not have reported this advertisement as news. The thing I would have done differently is not be a shill.
So you’re talking out of your ass. Got it
Funny, I feel the same way.
Hey, at least we agree on something lol
That’s a start.
You also feel like you’re talking out of your ass?
This guy is fun at parties
Do you have anything to add that isn’t merely insulting? Like, a thought. Do you have any thoughts to share? Inside of your head. do you have any
Yea, that you’re fun at parties.
next time you have a thought
let it go
I don’t think I’m going to let mr. ”bad-take—edgy-2006-gamer-tag-name-guy” tell me what to do. So nah.
