Honestly, I haven't had a single dropout since jumping on the Tidal bandwagon over the holidays. There have been a few times where I've experienced a brief 1-3 second pause when searching or starting playback, but otherwise it's been as responsive as my local NAS. I'm very impressed by the quality of service so far. Just not the search engine.

I think your location and internet service provider have a lot to do with it. I'm on Comcast in New England. I stream Tidal via Linn DS over Ethernet.

Dave_K	I had dropouts on Tidal last night, for the first time. Hopefully this isn't a sign of things to come as they get more subscribers.

Maybe it would be better if I had the native Windows app, but that isn't available now because they say it has problems. Oh well, there's always Qobuz . . . and Deezer Elite will presumably be available without Sonos at some point.

josh358 Industry Professional Posts: 12332 Joined: February 9, 2010	Well, six days into my Tidal trial and I've discovered that I don't get pops if I stream 44.1 to my phone. It sounds great. But the Chrome app just doesn't work for me without dropouts and I have no idea when they're going to get the native Windows app fixed, so I'm going to cancel because even compressed sound is better than dropouts.

Is Tidal just stopping on other people?, posted on April 5, 2015 at 08:54:18

josh358 Industry Professional Posts: 12332 Joined: February 9, 2010	Peering problem? I've always gotten pops when I used a browser client -- MOG, Spotify, and Tidal. So I tend to think it's a Windows problem. With MOG and Spotify, I get fewer pops with the native Windows app, but couldn't try Tidal's app since it's been withdrawn until they fix it.
