Napster, the brand synonymous with the music piracy boom of the early 2000s, has a new copyright challenge. Together with audio giant Sonos, Napster faces a lawsuit demanding over $3.4 million in alleged unpaid copyright royalties. Filed by SoundExchange, the complaint centers on missed payments related to the “Sonos Radio” service, which until 2023 was powered by Napster’s music catalog.

    I did the same but joined Tidal for the same reason. Their app isn’t terrible—could do with more features but it’s been robust in my experience.

      I am using tidal now. I like it. But I hate that it loses my place in my playlist quite often. I also dislike that it is difficult to remove a song from a playlist, as you cannot remove it from the song while it is playing, you have to go to the playlist to remove it.
