Tidal is a music streaming service that launched in 2014 and was later acquired by rapper Jay-Z. The platform is known for its high sound quality and exclusive content. Tidal offers two subscription options: Tidal HiFi, which features CD-quality audio (FLAC), and Tidal HiFi Plus, which supports lossless audio and Master Quality Authenticated (MQA) files, as well as Dolby Atmos and Sony 360 Reality Audio for an immersive listening experience.

A key feature of Tidal is its emphasis on fair compensation for artists. The service claims to offer higher payouts per stream than competitors such as Spotify and Apple Music. In addition, Tidal has exclusive releases, music videos, concert recordings and interviews that are not always readily available on other platforms.

Tidal is available on smartphones, tablets, computers and various smart audio devices. Although the platform has fewer users than Spotify or Apple Music, it is mainly appreciated by music lovers who are looking for the best audio quality and a more artist-friendly model.
