Worst scenario for me: If they fold Tidal into iTunes it would be terrible. I got rid of iTunes when I purchased my first music server a decade ago. All the fussy DRM controls on ripped files were/are awful. And if MQA deceased at birth it would be back to where we were pre-Tidal. I could imagine eschewing streaming in favor of good old CD purchases.
Best scenario: Apple maintains Tidal as a separate service and helps promote grow of MQA.
