Tidal Catalogue

[John Duncan]

So just signed up for Tidal's 30 day trial to see what the catalogue looks like. Practically wet myself when I found Peter Gabriel's entire catalogue (not available on Spotify), but when I tried to play, it says 'The record company will not allow this album to be streamed'.

So: 1) why show it and 2) how many others are there? Is their '25 million tracks' true or are they include ng unplayable tracks?

What the very?

Hi JD,

Never mind- Try Steve Hackett instead.

Bye.

Frustrating to say the least, I'm sure. Not the best way to sell themselves to you during a trial either.

I think streaming services are always going to have that monopoly where you'll only be able to listen to certain tracks on certain services. I'm still to be won over by streaming myself. I think it's good for finding new music but on the whole I think I would rather just be able to purchase everything I want in CD quality download at a reasonable price.

Perhaps the tide's out.

My very same reaction when I tried to find anything from the ECM catalog. Frustrating.
