That’s 190 megabytes of compressed data for a 5-minute song! Qobuz is the service for high res music, currently the only mainstream service offering true lossless music up to a baffling 24 bits at 192kHz.
A reason to stick with Tidal is mostly the ‘brand’ and their higher fees for artists and they also offer some unique content like interviews and concerts. Deezer is Tidal’s main rival though: Deezer has a bigger catalogue and better software for less. Qobuz competes with Tidal on absolute music quality, which Qobuz wins. An audiophile should probably look elsewhere. MQA is something the artists, hardware manufacturers, and consumers are all paying for, but are apparently not benefiting from.
It’s been recently proven to be lossy and question marks have been raised on what it’s doing to the original audio.
