In the world of high-fidelity music streaming, Tidal is a leading platform, offering an extensive library of tracks in lossless quality. Neutron Music Player stands out for its advanced audio features, making it the go-to choice for audiophiles. However, Tidal doesn't natively support Neutron Music Player. In this guide, we'll explore how to play Tidal through Neutron Music Player, using the BubbleUPnP method, and introduce the benefits of converting Tidal music with AudFree Tidal Music Converter for seamless offline listening.
Part 1. Why Integrate Tidal with Neutron Music Player
