Amafu aqoqana ngenkonzo yokusakaza iTidal, izimali zizophela phakathi nonyaka

Imakethe yokusakaza umculo ilawulwa abadlali ababili abakhulu, okuyi-Spotify (cishe abasebenzisi abakhokhayo abayizigidi ezingu-60) kanye ne-Apple Music (abasebenzisi abayizigidi ezingu-30). Ngokuphambene, abanye empeleni bayagaya futhi bahlukanise yonke imakethe ngokuya kokunye okukhethekile kwabo okufanela amakhasimende abo. Phakathi kwabo singabala, isibonelo, iPandora noma iTidal. Futhi nguTidal, umhlinzeki wokusakaza okuqukethwe kwe-HiFi, okube yisihloko esishisayo izolo. Sekuvele ulwazi lokuthi inkampani iphelelwa yimali kanti isimo esikhona kuthiwa sizosimama kuphela ezinyangeni eziyisithupha ezizayo.

Ulwazi ilethwe iseva yase-Norwegian Ama-Dagens I-Næringsliv, ngokusho ukuthi inkampani inamathuba anjalo ezezimali azokwenza ukuthi isebenze isikhathi esingangezinyanga eziyisithupha. Futhi lokhu naphezu kweqiniso lokuthi i-opharetha Sprint itshale imali engaphansi kwezigidi ezingu-200 zamaRandi kusevisi yokusakaza ye-Tidal. Uma le mibono igcwaliseka, khona-ke uJay-Z nabanye abanikazi bazolahlekelwa cishe isigamu sezigidigidi zamaRandi.

I-Tidal iphika ngokunengqondo lolu lwazi. Nakuba bevuma ukuthi ukucabangela kwabo ukuthi bazofinyelela "zero" ngonyaka ozayo, ngesikhathi esifanayo balindele ukwanda kancane kancane futhi.

Ukutshalwa kwezimali okuvela kwa-Sprint, kanye nokunye ukutshalwa kwezimali kweminye imithombo, kuqinisekisa ukusebenza kwenkampani ezinyangeni ezizayo eziyi-12-18. Ulwazi olubi mayelana nesiphetho sethu beluvela kusukela kwasungulwa inkampani yethu. Nokho, besilokhu sikhula kancane kancane kusukela ngaleso sikhathi. 

Ngokusho kwedatha yokugcina eshicilelwe, i-Tidal inababhalisile abayizigidi ezingu-3 (ngoJanuwari 2017), kodwa imibhalo yangaphakathi ibonise ukuthi isimo sangempela sasihluke kakhulu (izigidi ezingu-1,2). I-Tidal inikeza izinga eliphezulu lokubhalisa, okuthi, nokho, linikeze okuqukethwe kokusakaza ngekhwalithi ye-CD (i-FLAC ne-ALAC stream). Uma kuqhathaniswa nezimbangi, intengo iphindwe kabili ($20/ngenyanga).
