    That’s not up to the streaming service but the record company.

    Personally I switched from Tidal to Qobuz this year and I like it much better.

      That doesn’t really matter for the end user as they’re in a relationship with the streamer not the record companies. I hate this drive to obfuscate responsibility in corporate America.

        Dude, you are the one obfuscating.

        Qobuz and Deezer are French, Tidal was originally Norwegian, Spotify was originally Swedish and record companies are from all over the world.

        If record companies make exclusive deals with platforms for some releases and pull distribution for others, then blaming the streaming services excluded is just plain fucking stupid.
