RE: Tidal streaming quality

I have two internet connections (belt and suspenders): one, the phone company is 10Mbps; two, Comcast is 80 Mbps. I have never had problems with Tidal on either connection with any device. Sometimes I'll have problems with ClassicsOnline on the slower connection. On a few occasions Tidal has not had good sound quality, but it has been rare.

I will miss the catalog of ClassicsOnline, but Tidal is an acceptable alternative in my experience. I was comparing SQ between Tidal, Apple Music and Spotify using the new MTT/SFS album of Debussy (I couldn't find it on Tidal last night but I see it's there now). ClassicsOnline has it as 16/44.1 only, yet it still sounded much better than either Spotify and Apple Music. I'll compare Tidal tonight.
