It sometime returns only 30 'albums' for a given query. For example, when 'Bruckner' is entered in the TIDAL search box 30 albums show up.
When 'Bruckner' is entered in the QOBUZ search box you will see over 800 'albums' come up (some duplicates, granted).
Enter 'Bruckner Jochum' in TIDAL, you get 23 returns and when you enter 'Bruckner Barenboim' up pops 23 more, so perhaps there are a few hundred Bruckner titles on TIDAL, if you know how to find them.

The library is limited. The search has problems no doubt, as I mentioned. But it is lacking a lot of what I listen to. Maybe the classical is fine.

Classical is spoty. Many albums I bring up are grayed out which means they don't have clearance to stream them. I like the sound but need to try different searches to see if I can get what I want

Not as great of a catalog as QOBUZ or even Spotify or MOG used to have and VERY hard to figure out how to find things.
Do like the having a shot at the Chandos catalog again though. ;-)
Every version of ultra-lounge christmas cocktails and then some. Easily 20+ albums of swinging, lounge, hipster holidays. Which is just what the Dr. ordered tonight with some icy cold drinks...
I suspect that the ickstream developers are working hard behind the scenes now to build a better search functionality. It may take a few months to have a more granular search ability, but the service is still in beta. They also apparently had to rebuild a huge library for the US due to licensing restrictions and som of the WiMP titles are not yet entered. Again, public beta. If they offered a radio style playlist as good as Pandora's I'd quit Pandora One today.
