Found this statement on Tidal.
"There are different pricing models for the different countries, so its not simply a case of exchange rates. If you compare TIDAL with other major music or video streaming services, you will notice the same US/UK pricing difference. Pricing is set in cooperation with the labels according to their local market standards."

Don't quite know what to make of this, but it would appear that the UK has suffered from a different and higher price model from "The Labels" for years.

Supply chain and distribution costs could have been different in the hardware past, but is this really true now in the streaming world?

I would love a credible and believable explanation from "the labels" and Tidal.

If the artists benefited from this policy I would not be unhappy, however I find this hard to believe especially with the latest Euro (Germany) published price.

I cannot believe 19.99 is the price irrespective of currency exchange rates, this cannot be a coincidence. It is just HISTORY
