Should be the same across any instance.

Google’s own Shaka sdk (video playback with ads) gives ad markers in the initial video manifest so that they can be marked on the timeline, so hopefully it’ll be trivial. Usually (but not always) with SSAI, the ads are spliced into the stream just before being sent to the client. That way if a user has just recently watched an ad pod, the server can choose to ignore that marker for a better UX in hopes that they don’t bounce if ads are too frequent.
I thought it fit.
Rap Artist Breaks 20 Year Silence To Take on the Medical Industrial Complex
Sounds more oniony to me than 90% of the things posted recently.
I run both side-by-side, but for me Plex is still the clear winner right now for features and polish.
Sure. Obviously it’s more complex than that, but it helps illustrate where the math came from in the parent comment. I don’t know why Tidal pays more, but I’m hypothesizing its because most of their “co-owners” of Tidal are themselves, artists/musicians, which IMO is significantly better than the out of touch folks running Spotify.
Think of it not in terms of revenue percentages, but by payouts per song stream:
| Service | Payout/song | Plays to make $1 | | ------------- | -------- |
| | Tidal Music | $0.01284 | 78 | | Apple Music | $0.008 | 125 | | Amazon Music | $0.00402 | 249 | | Spotify | $0.00318 | 314 | | YouTube Music | $0.002 | 500 | | Pandora | $0.00133 | 752 | | Deezer | $0.0011 | 909 |
So song for song, Apple is paying 2.5x what Spotify is (.008/.00318), and Tidal is paying out a whopping 4x what Spotify pays.

Yeah I’m on the free plan which used to include FLAC and 320kpbs, but they stopped doing that for free plans about a year ago I think.
I’ve been using deemix, and for the most part it’s been pretty seamless. Stuff direct downloads instantly, but it’s all in 128kbps now unfortunately. Then I have lidarr monitor everything for a lossless version.
You should check out Plexamp while you bridge the gap. It has tidal support built in, and you can self-host your own collection as you build it up. Then when you’re done with tidal, you don’t have to learn or download a new app.
Thanks! It was a Python backend that the data science team at UCAR built and a Vue.js front end.
Damn that’s crazy. When I was just out of college I built the touchscreen web app that promoted this thing in the lobby of UCAR. Looks like it’s still running for now: https://hpctv.ucar.edu
Plexamp can do all of this (not sure about mdna speakers though) and it has Tidal integration.
Finamp will also work but it lacks library/genre radio and mix support last time I checked.
