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.
Get over yourself mate.
insane cope
To be miserable somewhere else.
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?
Why are people downvoting this? I sense strong sarcasm
You really weren't, though.
good one
You okay love? You need a hug?
I think they just need attention.
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.
You don't know the Verge, perhaps
This is just a good news and they are reporting it as such
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.
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.
Nothing can make it news.
There is no presentation that can turn an article about a price drop into anything but an ad.
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.
So you're talking out of your ass. Got it
Hey, at least we agree on something lol
You also feel like you're talking out of your ass?
This guy is fun at parties
Yea, that you’re fun at parties.
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.
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.
