Tidal's streaming controversy
The controversy of Tidal falsifying data, made by Dagens Næringsliv, has links outside of Wikipedia (such as their study), and not only does the section suggest WP:POV, but also a possible new wiki article about it. The word "comprehensive" and "a claim that would have meant every subscriber played the album an average of eight times per day". While it is phrasing from the references, but seems leaning towards argumentative rather than neutral. There have been articles staying updated to this controversy that can be added to it as well, which further adds to the possible new article. There is little detail from Tidal's side of the controversy nor does the section explain from Tidal's point of view to give the neutral aspect of explaining the entire situation itself.

 * Has this been sorted now? (in which case the banner needs removing). I just read the article and it seemed neutral enough to me, as in, I couldn't tell which way it was supposedly biased.  The 'every subscriber' quote is just simple arithmetic.  Reverse the calculation and it works, so I see no problem there, and there are plenty of references to Tidal's counter claims included in the piece.  I think it's OK, although this, and all the other articles about streaming services, don't answer the question I myself was looking for.  What kinds of music is service biased towards? --Deke42 (talk) 21:52, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

Remove "lossless" from the description
As far as I know, all "master quality" recordings are lossy MQA. The rest of the recordings are 1411 kbps at most. That means that Tidal no longer offers the uncompressed FLAC file.

Just wanted to check back to be sure that I don't miss anything here. Andibrema (talk) 16:57, 20 May 2021 (UTC)

New TIDAL plan
Yesterday, I received an email from TIDAL as a HiFi subscriber stating that both HiFi and HiFi Plus plan will be combined as a new plan called TIDAL, when the price didn't change. Original email text below - do note that I live in Malaysia and the currency of it does not change on the email text:

Starting April 10, 2024, you will now get access to our music library in full lossless, HiRes FLAC, and Dolby Atmos sound for the same price you pay today of 16.90 RM/month.

This is because we’re making it easier for everyone to enjoy best-in-class sound quality by combining our HiFi and HiFi Plus tiers into a single subscription tier called TIDAL.

You will see these changes reflected on your Subscription page at account.tidal.com on your first billing date on or after April 10, 2024. Thanks for choosing to be a TIDAL subscriber. Is this plan change appropriate to be on the "History" part of this article? Weareblahs (talk) 03:53, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
