    oh er yea- im with you on that!- tidal's a mess but right now it seems to have found a brief peak of stability with kanye's high profile release and the increase in subscribers- i dont think that'll hold though

    I mean whatever. We have to get rid of physical media anyways. Books, DVD's/Blurays (Including Games), CD's. etc. It all has to go. Waste of resources man. Gotta save ourselves from what will happen if we continue to k--- the environment. If we wanna keep paper then we gotta switch over to hemp.

    Besides there's no point. Fairly soon digital audio will be on the level of vinyl (on a mass scale). So no need for physical media.

This album really feels like an mixtape it makes me so sad because I wanted to buy the album but i dont buy it digitally i want a cd ... Man i don't want physicals to die its like merchandise for me ..

    Nah it'll hold once TIDAL starts "buying" (I guess?) the exclusive right to release more major artists new music. Jay got plenty of connections so I'm sure Kanye won't be the last or only big artist to exclusively release their music through Tidal (assuming Apple doesn't beat them to the punch atleast)

    :mjcry:There will always be physical something maybe not CDs or vinyl but something you would think maybe Kanye would get that he collects things just like we all do I would be surprised if he didn't at least press to wax it would be r-----ed to think streaming is the only way to go.

    WOULD YOU STREAM A CAR KANYE!?!?
    YOU TOOK THIS TOO FAR
    Your boy is not going to have tidal forever then what smh Kanye needs someone in his camp to tell him no Kanye that's a silly idea instead of these d-ck sucking yes men

    More disappointed that he isn't releasing his music on Apple platforms. Don't have Tidal or Spotify, never got into streaming, I'd rather buy a copy for my music library.... Pirate Bay it is... Sorry Yeezy.
