    Couple of my friends are in Tidal's cult, I still haven't tried it out though.

    Would have been a waste of money tbh, they'd basically be buying it ONLY for more exclusives.

    things have never been stranger Prestigious

    They could likely buy Kanye and Rihanna out of their contracts for significantly cheaper than buying the entire service. Jay-Z's not putting out anything, anyway.
