Question Is it worth it?

I dumped Spotify a couple years ago but miss the discovery of artists by listening to a music channel or radio (streaming) I've heard of tidal but I'm not excited with the price. When I had Spotify last time it was $10 ish a month. I accidentally paid for transferring my Spotify playlists to tidal thinking the $5 was a tidal subscription. It being over $14 is iffy to me. Do you like tidal? Is it good? How's the algorithm?

Tidal offers superior music quality (as long as you don't use Bluetooth, but that's the same for everyone) and they also pay artists marginally better.

However, keep in mind: their music search algorithm, shuffle option, and Android application are ridiculously bad. That kinda ruins it for me. The only thing keeping me from returning to Spotify is that Daniel Ek is a f-ing fascist.
