Madonna Defends Tidal: 'We're Working Out a Lot of Kinks'

[ViviLittleM 3]

"We live in a society now where everybody just expects everything to be for free, but you don't get a house for free," says the pop superstar.

Tidal has seemingly been under fire ever since launching in March: the streaming music service is co-owned by some of the medium's biggest stars, but its pricing has been criticized, its interim CEO recently left and Birdman is reportedly suing the company for $50 million. In a new interview with the Associated Press, Madonna -- one of the company's many famous co-owners -- defended Tidal by pointing to the company's core ideals and hinting at more upcoming changes.

Buying a house Vs. Buying a song…… hmm

[Pop 4,541]

Thanks, I'll stick to Spotify. 

[Diamond Heart 4,400]

i feel like the Tidal group think they are failing because we want music for free and arent here for giving artists money. Which is totally wrong, we just werent here for a bunch of multi millionaires making their want of more money into a social cause (turning everything that blue colour, using words like revolution etc) 

Tidal is doomed because of the absolute disaster that was its launch. id rather give my money to Spotify or Apple Music just because of how pretentious and completely away from reality they all are, i mean Jay-Z's water comment alone

[Sunday 2,183]

nothing's gonna attract people if they'll still need us to pay monthly

[Kacey Elizabeth 900]

No. Tidal SUCKS and that's why it was a huge flop, failure, and disaster. It's pretentious as f**k. I'll stick to Apple Music. I love Madonna, but she needs to stop with the whole Tidal s**t.

[Phoenix 17,395]

I understand that she is trying to stick to her work or a project she is a part of, but she should really let go of this one, no one is here for that. 

[SychosSoChic 9,995]

WHY would I join Tidal, when one of the few things, actually the ONLY thing, that actually seems appealing, Tidal Exclusives, will be put onto Youtube for FREE anyway?

[barcodemonster 3,525]

Apple Music slays and I will stay there 

[Echo 327]

Spotify has been treating me fine, thanks though!
