TIDAL isn’t tapping out of the streaming rat race any time soon.
Indeed, despite rumors of cash-flow issues, JAY-Z‘s much talked about platform just took a major stride in the right direction.
Full story below…
Today TIDAL made its surprise debut on both Apple TV and Android TV.
In doing so, the services will allow their respective subscribers access to TIDAL’s entire library of music along with video content such as concerts, livestreams, and music videos directly on their TVs.
TIDAL’s expansion into the television arena gifts the company a competitive advantage over the likes of Spotify, which doesn’t have a dedicated app on the aforementioned services.
The move comes after TIDAL recently rolled out support for Apple’s CarPlay and integration with Sonos speakers. [Source]

Kudos.
We keep saying it, but if TIDAL can pivot its core proposition, it may be able to weather the storm and last the distance.
So instead of being a music streaming service that also broadcast video, it should brand itself as a platform for concerts, livestreams, and videos – that also streams music.
I think many people were to quick to consider Tidal a failure. But it may in time turn out to be a success after all.
Good for Jay!!! Many people forget it took Pandora, Spotify, other music services to become a major success. Nothing is built over night. People just assumed that Big name artist being attached to Tidal would make it automatic success. Sure Tidal has had set backs but every company has!
Thats major
Everyone hating doesn’t realize he took over a failing company and is making it better for other as well now!!
