subscriber, you’re probably unaware that the music streaming service will no longer support two audio formats: MQA and 360 Reality Audio. Starting on July 24, 2024, TIDAL users will no longer be able to access music in these two audio formats.

Now, those of you who have an MQA track or album in your Collections , the track will automatically be replaced by the highest quality FLAC version that has been distributed to TIDAL. It’s important to note that TIDAL says that while they have at least 16-bit, 44.1 kbps FLAC versions of nearly all MQA tracks in its library, it might not have a replacement for every single one. Still, the company says it’s working hard to ensure that all existing MQA tracks will be replaced with a FLAC version after July 24.
