So Block owns TIDAL, and BlackRock owns some shares in Block, and BlackRock does some shady investments.

I dunno man. I don't know how far/many steps back I should take before I consider it far enough removed from the unethical practices. It's not like TIDAL invests in war and genocide. Right?

    You give money to Tidal, that gives money to investors that use this money to finance wars.

    Yeah unfortunately in some ways we're financing that if we don't take actions. Fortunately for streaming the switch is super easy and the transfer of songs and artists automated

    Ah, my god, that's great.

    Now all I need from it is to have it work in my car (Android) and an app for it on Linux while I'm at work. 😊 Then I think I'd be good to go.

    One thing I'd like as well is to know which artists I'll be missing when moving over. And there are some recorded children's stories in my language that are available on Spotify which I play for my children all the time. I wish I could see if they were available before going over. 😅 Like Pippi Longstocking, and Bamse, stuff like that, lots of Astrid Lindgren stuff. 😊

    Get the 2 Free weeks to discover :) When you transfer the playlist and sounds you get a report with all has or hasn't been found. Few artists were missing so I contacted them. And now there music is on Qobuz as well :)
