#Tidal for artists plus
Now sure, giving artists a leg up is in principle fine, but as someone who isn't interested in the overwhelming majority of commercially popular music and instead listens to artists that rarely, if ever, get radio airtime - artists that most people probably haven't even heard of - then a significant motivating factor for the HiFi Plus subscription has been removed.ĭPA allowed me to at least try and make a small contribution to the artists that make my day that little bit better. Feasibly, the user contribution could disproportionately benefit artists who perform exclusively in genres and styles the user has absolutely no interest in. Now Tidal decides who benefits, regardless of the user's own preferences. The user's taste and choice decided which artists benefited. Very few "giant" artists would have benefited from mine, but no matter, the real difference here is that DPA was user-focused. I'll be considering letting my subscription expire from April with this change being implemented. I enjoyed the fact that my top listened artists actually got a portion of my subscription.

Plus, we will continue to provide you with your monthly listening recaps with My Activity. You can learn more about TIDAL RISING at /RISING.īeyond this, TIDAL still pays artists more than the others with HiFi Plus - we charge a little more so we can distribute more to artists.

With over $6M being invested in the program this year, you can expect to see more things like our recent TIDAL RISING x Atlanta activation where TIDAL provided 4 Georgia acts with documentaries, billboards, TV coverage, and an opportunity to play for and connect live with their biggest fans.
Instead, we’ll invest more than funds into the TIDAL RISING program - backing emerging artists with education, custom promotion and direct-funding, so they can grow, thrive, and build their careers with purpose and confidence. Starting April 1st, we'll no longer commit a % of HiFi Plus membership to top-listened artists each month. While every little bit counts, we learned that the program left less room for emerging artists to receive payments given its focus on listeners’ ‘top artists.’ Because of that, we made the decision to discontinue DAP. In over a year, we enrolled 70,000 artists and distributed $500,000 in payments. It’s why we launched the Direct Artist Payouts (DAP) program, a first of its kind experiment that allowed TIDAL to pay artists directly, above and beyond royalties, in a fun way that connects fans' listening habits to their favorite artist's wallet. Finding new ways for artists to support their craft drives everything we do at TIDAL. Thank you for being a part of the HiFi Plus community and continuing to support TIDAL’s mission to economically empower artists. The below is from an email I just recieved.
