Celeb News: Tidal To Start Streaming Films | Can't Keep Them Down

Tidal vs Spotify
Tidal vs Apple Music

Now Tidal vs Hulu vs Netflix

Jay Z is using his subscription-based *streaming-music service Tidal to get into the movie business — and will soon be offering original films to subscribers, Page Six can exclusively reveal.

Multiple sources confirmed to us that the service is in negotiations with movie-industry executives, for a partnership to create films for Tidal, with a focus on the artists signed to the streaming service.

Tidal has already put in a request to Apple for approval to add movie streaming to their app, we’re told, and the service could be up and running as early as June.

One source told us, “Tidal has upset everybody in the music business, the labels, Apple and [Interscope founder] Jimmy Iovine, and now it is taking on Netflix and Hulu.

“The movie service will feature original content as well as acquired films. Tidal hopes to work with an indie studio or producer on a partnership to create original movies.”

Beyoncé’s new album is expected to drop in the next two months.

Insiders also say that recent reports claiming Samsung was in talks to buy Tidal are false, and the talks were in fact over a marketing deal. Reps for Tidal and Jay declined to comment.

1 billion steams in the first 24 hours is coming

I can get behind the movie for Bey's album being a TIDAL exclusive. Just not the album itself.

Monceau

omg this will bomb so hard.

TheSoneNavy

Beyonce free movie is coming!

LaNathan

This is obviously a hint at Bey's movie for B6.

Disco Love

Good luck with that.

This is known though. They've said from the beginning they were going to do this.

Everyone in the thread already upset at Tidal but Tidal has NO signs of stopping anytime soon. So just move along! Y'all don't spend y'all coins on it. So me and the other 2,999,999 PAYING users are just fine with what we get!

No, they said they WANTED to do it. This is confirmation that its in deed coming. Learn the difference sis. I swear it kills me when y'all always come with the "we knew this already"

No you, suspected it and THOUGHT about it, it was never confirmed so you didn't know anything.

Bey's new album has a new movie component so it's probably going to be a Tidal exclusive now.

Ugh

Rentboy

I don't trust Tidal or anything they claim. It's a dodgy brand I'll never buy into.

LOL

Is this the same source who comes up with the inflated steaming stats for Tidal?

Hi_im_new

Y'all say the same **** in every thread about tidal.

I love how they're pushing through and not worrying about the criticism.
