TIDAL

-

Jams on TV Free (subscripti­on required)

With unlimited access to over 50 million losslessqu­ality songs and nearly 200,000 music videos, the house that rapper Jay-Z built — better known to the public as TIDAL — recently debuted its high-fidelity streaming in living rooms everywhere by adding support for Android TV and Apple TV hardware.

The tvOS app provides the same experience on a larger screen, right down to the dark theme and access to personaliz­ed favorite content. You’ll need an existing subscripti­on, however, which costs at least $9.99 per month for standard audio quality, or twice that for High Fidelity lossless streaming.

TIDAL’s biggest challenge is convincing subscriber­s High Fidelity is worth the cost. Higher quality streams make less sense on a phone, but Apple TV support offers a more compelling argument.
