Struggling, what to do about Tidal? (self.buycanadian)

When Neil Young asked us to switch to Tidal, I went along and loved that it paid the artists 10x more per stream.

But Tidal is American owned, spotify isn't...

I'm struggling on this one, a lot of the lil punk bands I love could really use the revenue but, y'know, trade war etc.

Anyone have any thoughts to assuage a guilty conscience on this one?

Qobuz. It's French and it pays more than Tidal. It's a privately owned company. You can also actually buy music from it in addition to streaming. Fuck Tidal.

Deezer is also french

I just switched to Deezer! It is pretty good so far, and they seem to have even relatively obscure Canadian music. Good francophone content, if you're into that sort of thing.
