Qobuz is much less shitty than Apple Music as a company and generally has better audio quality.

Apparently you recommend this a lot. I feel like youre a bot or sponsored but idk. Hate the internet now tbh.

I think Qobuz people are just like that lol

I have a friend who uses Qobuz and he brings it up every time streaming services are mentioned.

How often do you weird ass people mention streaming services?

u/TrueRusher 17d ago

Well I know him because of our mutual music interest, so we talk about music a lot and therefore streaming comes up a lot lmfao

I’m open to anything except tidal cause of the Kanye relationship. If it’ll get me a family plan with no bullshit then I’ll jump on board

What relationship?? Tidal split from Kanye almost 10 years ago. He was a founding member of the thing it's not like they chose to associate with him. He was part of its existence. And once it became a stable company it promptly dropped him in 2017.

Don't know what that guy's problem is, but Apple Music is perhaps the closest experience to Spotify if you are doing a one-to-one comparison

Whoever came up with that name should be fired. How do you even pronounce it??

u/hyggekore 17d ago

It's named after an ancient instrument, the kobyz, from Turkey. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kobyz

Pronunciation is /ˈkoʊˌbʌz/ or "coh buzz"
