You Can Now Stream Tidal Music Directly From Plex

Plex and Tidal have partnered up to bring the streaming music service to the media center app. Tidal subscribers will find the entire Tidal catalog, including videos and podcasts, integrated into the Plex app and sitting alongside their existing music library.

For the uninitiated, Tidal is the music streaming service we suggested was doomed to fail when it launched in 2015. And yet it’s still going strong. In 2017, Tidal tried appealing to audiophiles. And partnering with Plex is its latest attempt to win new fans.

Plex Partners With Tidal

This partnership means Tidal is the first music streaming streaming service to be integrated into Plex without any need for a plugin. If you’re a Tidal subscriber, 60 million songs—plus 250,000 music videos—will show up alongside your own media files.

The tight integration means Tidal users will now see artist recommendations, new album recommendations, and albums missing from your collection. Plex’s Artist Radio and playlists will also have Tidal tracks thrown into the mix.

You can try Tidal for free for 30 days. And, as explained on the Plex Blog, if you like what you see (and hear) you can buy a Plex and Tidal bundle. Plex and Tidal Premium will cost you $9.99/month. While Plex Pass and Tidal HiFi will set you back $19.99/month.

Forget About Kanye West

For Tidal subscribers who already use Plex this is a no-brainer. And there’s bound to be Tidal users who check out Plex as a result of this partnership, and vice versa. The rest of us will need to move past that cringeworthy Tidal launch with Kanye West et al first.

If you’re new to Plex you should check out our guide to Plex. And if you’re not a fan of Plex, there’s always Emby. For those sticking with it, Plex recently added free on-demand web shows, as well as podcasts and additional customization options.

Before You Customize Your iOS App Icons There are a few important points you need to know before you customize the app icons on your iPhone Home Screen: It's time-consuming: For every app icon you want to change, you need to create a new shortcut in the Shortcuts app, then add it to your Home Screen and hide the original app. If you have a lot of apps, this could take hours.

The 9 Different Types of NFTs

Jack Dorsey, the creator of Twitter, sold the world's first tweet for $2.9 million; this bit of news is what introduced most people to the world of NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens). Now all the rage, NFTs are being bought and sold like priceless pieces of art. The NFT market is seemingly swarming with digital Mona Lisas, but the question is: besides tweets and pictures, what other types of NFTs are there in the wild? Let's take a dive into the world of NFTs and find that answer. First Off: What Are NFTs? Digital media can be replicated easily and redistributed; however, try making an honest-to-goodness copy of the Mona Lisa down to the brush strokes and the original paper. Think of NFTs as digital non-replicable pieces of art. These are properties that can not be copied or replaced at all.
