Below is how XXHighEnd has registered them earlier on (say 6 weeks ago). So these were there (for Holland at least) and the only one still listed is the Hitchhiker album (bottom left). But even that reports normal CD quality now by the decoder (notice this one was MQA 44.1 already, but today it is reported as normal 44.1). In the Tidal Desktop Player this thus still shows as MQA, but it can't be producing MQA any more (no blue light, if all is right). What I regard very fishy is that the exact same Album ID's still lead to the find of the very same albums, but that Tidal does not report them as MQA any more. This is NOT how I thought it worked. So yes, we can receive a normal "HiFi" version instead when not authorized, but I just am (other Artists are still fine). So what seems to have happened here is that Neil Young withdrew his albums in MQA version and that this for the Hitchhiker album failed halfly. Or something like that. The one next to the mouse arrow is the Harvest which has been there in MQA. The one next to the mouse arrow is the only one denoted with the "M", bit it is not that for real. Does anyone have information about this ? Do we all see the same ? Thanks, Peter We see the same thing. I had links to the MQA versions of Rust Never Sleeps and Sleeps With Angels. Clicking on the album, I now get " The content is no longer available." Doing a search for these albums, I see 3 versions of Rust Never Sleeps and 1 version of Sleeps With Angels. Clicked on all these and they played standard redbook. This highlights the ephemeral nature of streaming services. Teresa and Siltech817 2 mQa is dead! Link to comment
