I like Deezer. I’ve been using it and telling people about it since Spotify was insistent about being focused on chasing a politically charged content (over) investment instead of delivering quality, behavior driven content based on their algo.
Can someone give me the rundown of Deezer vs. Qobuz vs. Tidal? I’ve been using Tidal and I like it well enough but I’m curious about the other lossless options.
I’m pretty sure I’ve read Qobuz has the highest payout of any streaming service, plus you can actually buy music. Also afaik Qobuz never jumped on the mqa scam train. Tidal wasn’t even giving you lossless music when you asked for lossless music for the longest time.
Meanwhile, Deezer is completely unknown. No one in the comments even mentioned it. RIP.
ikr. Deezer can’t be that unknown. Right?
Deezer is the best platform. Superior audio quality comparing trash services like Spotify and ytmusic
Another Deezer user in the wild! Been a subscriber to it for years now.
The redesign is terrible…
But Deezer is great! I have been using it for years now, it’s missing a couple of songs here and there but the ability to import MP3s makes up for it.

I liked and used Deezer until they rebranded. I can’t get over the new look. Switched over to Tidal
Deezer nuts
I don’t use deezer but I rip flacs from there
A criminal! Lock him up 🚓.
No one’s mentioned Qobuz either. It’s like Spotify+iTunes except lossless.
How do you pronounce ‘Qobuz’? Is it ‘quo-buzz’?

Short summary: Tidal is the best overall.
Balancing the content, quality, and amount paid to artists, I put it on top.
I’m pretty sure I’ve read Qobuz has the highest payout of any streaming service, plus you can actually buy music. Also afaik Qobuz never jumped on the mqa scam train. Tidal wasn’t even giving you lossless music when you asked for lossless music for the longest time.
It’s true that Qobuz pays more per stream, although I’ve heard that they pay an amalgamated sum to the label instead of direct payment by artist.
Furthermore, while MQA was a bit of a bait-and-switch (basically lossy versions of much higher quality), Tidal always offered pure lossless as well.
Qobuz apparently has a better classical catalog, but worse customer support.
Basically, I’ve found Tidal to be - at this point - a bit ahead of Qobuz. Not a real complaint, just a “if I had to choose…” opinion.
Ko-buz
