Apple Music

TIDAL’s speciality is high-quality audio, and if that’s what you value highly, a pivot to Apple Music is the best substitute. It’s $1 per month more than TIDAL, but that price includes Hi-Res lossless audio on a huge selection of tracks, as well as Dolby Atmos and Spatial Audio. These premium formats are included at no extra cost, and subscribers can create their own playlists, listen to automatically generated radio stations, and play Apple Music on a host of devices.


Amazon Music Unlimited

An Amazon Music Unlimited subscription includes Hi-Res lossless audio up to 24-bit and 192kHz, as well as Dolby Atmos and Sony 360 Reality Audio. A standalone account costs $13 per month, or $12 per month for Amazon Prime members.
