After a star-studded press conference (many criticized it for being downright ridiculous and lacking in information) and a skyrocketing stock price, it looks like the streaming service Tidal, led by Jay Z and a few of his wealthy A-list friends, might be a big ‘ol fail.
The app has fallen out of the top 700 downloads for iTunes. In the words of Jezebel, “A dang QR code reader is currently #96 and Tidal can’t even break the top 700!”
(Total aside: What’s up with QR codes? Remember those three weeks a few years ago when everything had a QR code for some reason? Is that over?)
As the launch was happening, it seems most people knew this endeavor was going nowhere fast.
