What I didn’t like about Tidal was their weird format being advertised as lossless when it wasn’t. It didn’t really sound all that great.
There was an application called requiem (if I remember correctly) that could rip music from older Windows XP versions of iTunes; it was only available over Tor quite some time ago. I’m not sure what people would use these days (maybe just a [modified] DAC?).
TIDAL HiFi is FLAC as far as I know.
I had to look it up, what I was thinking of was MQA. Looks like they discontinued it last year though.
