Interesting numbers from Qobuz, a french music streaming service. But the press releases have slightly different emphasis on being european in the different languages.
The first paragraph of this press release in german reads (translated):
Qobuz proves that a European alternative that relies on sound quality and human curation can also find its audience in a mass market dominated by tech giants and achieve a positive balance.
In the french and english version it reads:
The success story of an independent French company that has become a global player alongside the music streaming giants.
It seems they only emphasize being european in the german press release, it’s missing from the english and french version.
I switched from Apple Music yesterday. Most of my library was transferred, except from a few of my favorite albums (early albums from Carpenter Brut or Perturbator that wold be very hard to buy today) and a few singles. Weirdly, some very obscure black metal bands are available but not some mainstream singles from the 90’.
