Part 2. Deezer vs Tidal: Subscription Service
Deezer brings on board 4 pricing tiers among which contain 1 free tier. The Deezer Premium+ charges about $9.99 per month. Even though these options limit sound quality to 320kbps, there are no annoying ads during the streaming session. There is also the option of Deezer Family, at a monthly fee of about $15. This choice covers up to 6 profiles while letting you enjoy limited mobile app use.
A list of Deezer subscription plans:
59173 Recherche de jeux. 59173 Jeux Gratuits pour Mobile, Tablette et Smart TV. We would like to show you a description here but the site won’t allow us. This offer grants you a 3-month free trial to the Deezer HiFi service. At the end of your free trial period, you will be automatically converted to a full price Deezer HiFi subscription at £14.99 per month, unless you opt out at least 48 hours before the date of automatic renewal. In other words, it's in-ear surround sound that delivers an immersive audio experience; as if you're listening to music at a live concert. The Sony WF-1000XM3 supports this feature, though it is only compatible with select streaming services including Tidal (HiFi subscription), Deezer, and nugs.net. Instead, Deezer has hopped into bed with Sony and is offering 360 Reality Audio streaming to subscribers to its HiFi tier. Clearly, Deezer is trying its best to differentiate itself, and that's to be applauded, but the result is that it falls short of matching Spotify's mainstream appeal and Tidal's hi-fi credentials.

Tidal knows how to lock in its subscribers, a move that is evident from its 50% discount for students who make monthly payments. All you need is a valid university email account for you to enjoy these huge benefits. Even with such discounts, Tidal has no free tier except a 7-day trial. But, its premium includes 'high quality' at 320kbps. The possibility of gaining access to lossless content is also present with the Tidal Hi-Fi tier at a cost of $19.99 per month.
Note: It is important to know for everyone, especially for those who are new to Tidal, that Tidal provides no free plan. Without subscription, you can't even listen to it online.
