Tidal increased their prices recently too, by the same amount. And for that I'm getting the high-quality audio Spotify keeps on promising for over ~~a year~~ TWO YEARS now.
Don't get me wrong, Tidal still has its own problems but I don't get why people still choose to have Spotify over one of its competitors.
My guess is most are like me, I use Bluetooth headphones and are on the go if I listen to anything. So higher quality doesn't really matter.
I mean that largely depends on your headphones and whether or not they (and your playback device) support decent Bluetooth codecs
This is what I mean. This is why ppl would buy Spotify premium instead. Most do not hear a difference because of the devices they use. I am also pretty sure most do not hear much of a difference so that the price would justify it.
