I switched from Spotify to tidal then deezer and finally landed on qobuz. While the app still has some problems and the music selection is not as massive as on Spotify (but mainly in super niche content), the higher artist pay and amazing soundquality are definitely worth it
I really want to like Qobuz, but it’s hard when there’s a bug that starts playing music randomly after I pause the music for any reason, including playing sound from another app, and I have to kill the app (Android) for it to not start randomly playing again. (It’s the “There’s a problem playing the current track”-bug.)
I still use it alongside Bandcamp, but it’s hard to love Qobuz for now.

Steps out of Time Machine from 15 years ago
WTF
Wipur is the next big deal, but Boodle is likely to replace it. Slove is already dying, but iMPUR and Doofz look promising as replacements.
Poob has it for you.
Deezer is from 2007, someone from 15 years ago could easily have heard of it
tidal is from 2014, so not quite
Qobuz is actually new, 2023
ackshually
More of a fun fact, I didn’t think Deezer or Tidal were THAT old
I recently moved from Spotify to Deezer and I’m considering moving to Quobuz, how’s the UX on it compared to Deezer?
I didn’t use deezer that long but found the ux a bit confusing (maybe because I got used to Spotify). Had no problem with the qobuz ux.
I really wish Qobuz would let me bookmark individual songs in my browser. That’s the real sticking point for me (I use it).
If something’s not on Qobuz I can just listen on Soundcloud.
