So Yamaha could choose to have an older unit play Tidal weather or not it does so in one fasion or another but chooses not to. Software only can play some type of Tidal but not every type. I get that. Also newer units to play MQA will need hardware to play that type of encoding properly. Some older dragonfly products will play mqa with a simple firmware upgrade.

I have been enjoying the outdoor speakers controlling Tidal on my phone through the Oppo to my second zone so masters for that is really not needed as i would never notice a difference anyhow and even on my main system it sounds great in the regular old CD quality Chad

I was checking out my new Apple TV 4K and just for grins searched for a TIDAL App and....... Yahtzee!!! There it is!
The TIDAL App's user interface and navigation design are very much to my liking; plus that, it's hyper fast.
IMO, the Apple TV TIDAL App outshines both my iPhone OPPO MediaControl/TIDAL App and iPhone TIDAL App using AirPlay.
While this may be old news to some, I thought I'd get it out there for others. I never really thought Apple would support the App of another music streaming service. Still no Spotify, which is closer to Apple's real competition.
Happy streaming...
