The streaming services don't pay out on a per stream basis, the idea of paying more to the artists is nice but charts like that don't convey enough information & so create a false picture of the situation.

That may be so, but I've not read anything to suggest Tidal isn't better for artists than Spotify.
I'm all ears though. I have no emotional attachment to either, and if Spotify is comparable in renumeration, for me it would be slightly better from a user experience point of view, once it goes to hifi streaming.

Hmmm, interesting and tempting. I switched to Tidal to get the hifi streaming but also
appreciate the fact they pay artists nearly triple what Spotify offer. I don't think it's quite as good as Spotify in terms of algorithms, and none of my stuff can use MQA, but I still think it would be good if more people jettisoned Spotify in an effort to encourage them to improve their offer to artists.
