I always hated the Spotify UI. Now if someone could clone Rdio now that its on its way out. Then I'd be interested.

Yeah, Spotify and Tidal have terrible Uis. I'm testing deezer now and I find it a lot better.

I've been waiting to try Deezer here in the US forever. Its still not available here. Which sort of blows my mind at this point with all of the competition here. Now that Rdio is ending. I may just do the trial via a VPN just to test it out.

At the moment I have been using Tidal on a trial and I just keep finding so many small features I miss from Rdio. The only thing I like about Tidal is the Lossless option.

The lossless option is nice but to be honest I had a lot of streaming issues with Tidal. For example, if I paused a track and walked away for 10 minutes and resumed it would hang and wouldn't pick the stream back up. I had to restart the track from the beginning (this is using the desktop app).

I'm in Canada so I didn't realize Deezer wasn't available in the USA.

Yes, I have had those issues with Tidal as well. I was listening to an album the other day and it just sort of froze at the end of the track. Very odd.

As far as I know. Deezer is available almost everywhere except the US and Japan. I hope they figure it out soon. I"m glad to hear that you like it.
