This deal is not worth the bother. MQA is a gimmick. It's not truly lossless high resolution. Qobuz is better if you care about audio quality and functionality. Qobuz has a website with deep filtering for metadata and they also have booklets. If you're okay with standard lossless or lossy compression than Apple, Amazon, and Spotify are the way to go.
Tidal won't survive through the next economic slump. Offering ridiculous low price deals like this is a sign of weakness.
I've had such a positive experience with it. I use it every day and it's blown me away. You will hear sounds in songs that you've never heard before on your favorite albums.
lol this sounds like a fake paid review, but I really do like it. I have every other service as well and this is definitely #1 in quality if you're an audiophile.

Hoewever, Apple and Amazon both provide higher quality hi-fi streaming than Tidal at half the cost (or less than half for family plans). Tidal did a great thing by pushing the market to high quality streaming, but their pricing just doesn't make sense anymore. Also, during the three months I tried it, Tidal would not stop pushing hip-hop and current pop music recommendations on me, even though I never listen to it. For what's supposed to be one of their specialties, the Tidal recommendation algorithms are worse than any other service I've tried.

My friend had Tidal via BB, luckily he had no issues neither streaming nor billing. Was able to cancel subscription after the year and everything went well. Billing issues may not arise as you are paying for the full year upfront. Only case will be when you don't cancel in time. I wouldn't consider that BB fault as much subscribers negligence. Tidal has nothing to do with billing. You cannot manage subscription thru Tidal when bought from BB.
In addition to inferior quality Tidal's catalog of faux high res MQA albums and singles is significantly smaller than Qobuz's catalog of 24bit files. This is the result of recording engineers, artists and labels purposely shunning MQA to avoid paying royalty fees to Meridian. Since FLAC is open source and royalty free nearly 100% of high res music is made available through FLAC.
Qobuz is unique because they are the only company offering lossless 24bit streaming. Besides Tidal, other streaming services such as Amazon HD also lack 24bit FLAC. Amazon uses an adaptive bit-rate technology that alters the bit-rate of the playing audio stream to adapt to network conditions. This means that the listener's device is never fed a bit-perfect audio file but instead chunks of differently encoded versions of the same audio track.
So Qobuz is quite unique when it comes to audio quality and no other service has as many 24bit albums as they do. Tidal put their financial self-interest ahead of thier users interests by making that deal.with Meridian.

Moving forward, found out I got charged for a renewal even though I was never able to activate it to begin with. I tried to get a refund and got told no, even though I literally never received the service I paid for.
Don't do the deal, it isn't worth the head ache.
I also love their app some people seem to have issues with it but i prefer it over spotify.
Also, the service trys to play ramdom songs you might like, and it always goes for some 90s song, like that's going to "Bring me back" or something, because I'm sure they know their audience. But, no, I don't want some old ass song! I want to hear new current music from the the artists that I took forever oletting the damn app know I like. Then it proceeds to give me something else, as if I wouldn't notice... Stop playing old music you have cheap licenses to, play some new stuff!
Whatever, I went back to Spotify. Which is only slightly better. At least I can block explicit songs, and it will play the clean versions of those songs I like. Instead of just not playing the song at all, and only focusing on some that are not originally explicit.

I agree with their price structure being outdated but once you cancel your service, you get promotions from them for 50% off.
