RE: Mastersound (MQA) on Tidal streaming

Posted by PAR on January 7, 2017 at 03:31:58:
Alan, TubeDriver : It seems that the mystery is solved. Tidal have announced at CES that their desktop player does the MQA decoding. I have to say that this is very attractive to me and I may try a subscription once things have settled a little and I can see what repertoire is on offer (if it is mainly pop and rock then I won't find it worthwhile).

As for the repertoire, at least numerically, Tidal say that they are making 30,000 tracks available " immediately". Looks like that immediate availability is going to take a few days to bring about judging by user reports here.
