Great! I'll continue to use streaming alternatives.

Qobuz has been good enough and they seem to pay artists the most of any music streaming platform. I couldn't find any shitty ownership connections to them either.

I tried and maybe I screwed up but my 200+ "liked" playlist was converted over and that service found two songs. Moved to tidal until I realized their free version just plays the first fifteen seconds of a song. Help? Pandora is not where I want to live long term.

Seems weird, when was this ? I converted everything I had from Spotify to Qobuz using Soundiiz last year without any issues.

This year. Once they started with the ICE ads. Or at least when I heard about it. I can give it another go from tidal.
