I searched “Craig’s Ear Candy” and found dozens. I can’t easily tell how many unique playlists there are but there are many copies.

Thanks for doing this! @Craig_Burgess

Do you prefer Qobuz over tidal and if I may ask why thanks

Qobuz for no other reason than higher artist compensation rates as discussed in an Audioholic podcast a couple of years ago.

The first year or so that I was streaming I subscribed to both, but I dropped Tidal because I realized I wasn’t using it nearly as much as Qobuz. There were things that each one carried that the other didn’t, but I found that happened a lot more frequently in Qobuz’s favor, at least among the things I like to listen to, especially classical. Sound quality was almost a toss-up, but I thought Qobuz had the edge, even if it was barely perceptible on my system. I also had zero interest in most all of the current popular music that Tidal pushed regularly. And finally, I very much liked Qobuz’s artist compensation. It seems far more fair.

Thanks for your interest, started a 30 day trial. Will compare the two.

I loved your “45s of my Youth” on Roon shuffle. Brilliant tracks.
