Unless someone ruins tidal by commenting below, I love tidal.

They pay their artists more

Tidal is great, and their "share with anyone" feature is just flat out 12/10, but I recently moved to Qobuz (French) because they pay the artists around 4 times more than Tidal does. And they're European.

I appreciate the share with anyone feature as well. I have a few friendships that are largely based on testing cool songs back and forth. This way the only inconvenience is me getting inbound Spotify links.

Artist pay is actually a big factor in comparing the Music Streaming options, with high royalties being a special shout-out. https://purchasewithpurpose.eu/category/music-streaming/
