Spotify vs Tidal - worth switching? - eviltoast

Which one do you prefer?

I am seeing plenty of mixed opinions about both Spotify and Tidal. Some are saying Spotify is the best, others say it’s bloated, others think it’s annoying it’s also an app for podcasts. Some people really like Tidal, but I have mostly seen negative opinions about it - worse song recommendations, no difference in audio, too expensive.

As someone who doesn’t care very much for song recommendations I can’t decide which one is ideal for me personally. Tidal seems to pay artists better, but the criticism it receives makes me unsure. What do y’all think?

    Exactly the 2 reasons I switched from Spotify to Tidal. The only complaint I have from Tidal is that sometimes the offline playlists take 15-20s to start playing. But it could also be my phone or for having the offline stuff on the SD card
