Primephonic launched a new, classical only, streaming service in the USA and UK on 14th. It offers CD quality plus downloads. They assert that the platform has been specifically developed for classical music . At circa $15 a month (I expect that becomes 15 gbp), it does look attractive and I will try the free trial period at least.
As I listen to music other than classical now and again I will stick with Qobuz (or maybe Qobuz Sublime+ in the next couple of days). However I have to say that Primephonic initially looks like a more attractive proposition for a second service for me to subscribe to rather than Tidal.
