What do you think Prince thinks of Tidal?

Do you believe it is something Prince could muster some interest in? ...

... Even joining it?

I've not been following the Tidal thing to know much about the platform.

From what I do gather, it seems to be something P would support in principle. Can't see him formally joining any collective of peers over whom he's not in charge, though.

Prince will wait until there is some consensus opinion, and then he'll take the opposite view wink

Unlike the other streaming services,the artists actually own Tidal and have control over it.That's gotta appeal to Prince.

If Prince does ever "agree" with Tidal in a future interview, it will be with a reminder that he did it first.

So, if Van Hunt or whoever is your favourite non-corporarate artist joins Tidal they will become equal partners in the venture?

It looks like they wont.

However a small group of artists who did start the site will benifit, kind of misleading.

Instead of corporate suits stealing a lesser artists lunch, a bigger artist will do it instead.

So its officical, the co-opting and branding of revolutionary ideas by the capitalist mainstream is here...."Revolution" (™) all rights reserved.

Prince is on Spotify so I can't imagine he won't be on Tidal.

Still, Jay-Z's a fool if he thinks he's going to wrest marketshare away from Spotify and YouTube. If Apple and Beats can't do it, Jay-Z SURE as hell isn't going to be able to. lol
