Too bad, it was good while it lasted. Thanks, Tidal.

I noticed it when I was listening to something that didn't sound right, I saw the 218 was downsampling a 192 FLAC file.

This my general impression too, and I am not aware of any available method to make a meaningful comparison. For instance is it possible to purchase The Beatles Red and Blue albums MQA versions?
