We'll lose 'porn' long before TIDAL quality is endangered...

Most porn is HD now, or so I am told by those in the know, and if you live in a 'red' state where it's a staple, there's a fair amount of panic going on as the ISPs clamp down.

As for TIDAL, cache is the issue and some of the 'appliances' used for streaming either don't have enough or leave the user with no way to deal with start/stop ISP intermittent streaming.

While some computer software provided by the streaming services (QOBUZ) let you set large cache, or in the case of TIDAL, commandeer enough by default to load a whole track and start a second before the first is played through.

SONOS, at least for me, does not and when my internet service is slow (everyone else in the neighborhood is streaming porn in HD) I get drop-outs. :-(






First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
