Tidal follows in the footsteps of Spotify. Introduces free listening

Music streaming platforma Tidal, which is known mainly for its very high HiFi quality tracks, comes with a new type of account. Like Spotify or other competitors, users will try to succeed by offering as well long-term free listening (not just a 30-day trial period). Of course with various restrictions, but still a novelty potential to attract many new listeners and then also paid users.

The current Tidal HiFi and Tidal HiFi Plus are added Tidal Free account, which also has access to an 80 million song database, however, the sound quality has been reduced to 160 kbps, does not offer skipping between songs or listening to them offline and there will be between songs embedded spots are played. So far, it is not about ads, but about some educational content. Paid advertiser promotion is expected to enter this area later.

Tidal Free is currently available in the US for some of the latest Android mobiles. We can hope that we will be able to try the free type of account with us in time. It could shuffle the cards in the field of music streaming services.
