I dropped Spotify and Rdio (once I heard the difference). Now if Tidal would pick up ECM artist, it would be even better.

There are plenty of indies on Tidal — I’ve been using the Hi-Fi version for a few weeks and I like it. I dropped Beats because of the poor navigation on their site and app. No such problems with Tidal. Tidal also doesn’t ignore classical and other non-pop/rock genres. People pay way more for their mobile phones and TV per month, but having access to thousands of albums and dozens of new releases each month for $20 or $10 bucks for low-fi seems like a good deal to me. If the artists get more of the money, so much the better.
