Label distribution to Tidal
Lossless and Atmos delivery to Tidal’s audiophile subscriber base.
Tidal serves an estimated 3–5 million subscribers paying for lossless and Spatial Audio streaming. The subscriber base is small compared to Spotify, but per-stream payouts sit at the top of the industry and Tidal is a strong fit for jazz, classical, electronic, and any genre where fidelity matters. bbn.music delivers FLAC masters untranscoded plus Atmos where supplied.
