If it does come to pass that Tidal have been making a number of false claims re their service then I would expect to see some of class action against them. Time will tell

Everything I have streamed on Tidal has been 44.1 kHz. On Qobuz the DAC lights have also shown 48 kHz, 88 kHz, 96 kHz and 192 kHz as it says on the tin.

Qobuz do a family subscription for £22.49 per month. For SQ it is the one to go for and wipes the floor with Spotify. You can have a months free trial.
