Jay Z Taking Former TIDAL Owners To Court For $15 Million

Jay Z is suing TIDAL's former owners, claiming they were untruthful about the amount of subscribers the streaming service had upon selling the company to the rapper.
According to Music Business Worldwide, Jay Z is seeking $15 million from the former shareholders of Aspiro, the parent company of TIDAL. This translates to about 100 million Norwegian Krone. The Rap mogul acquired the streaming service for a reported $57 million. He was told that TIDAL had 530,000 subscribers as of January 2015 and now says that figure was "misleading."
Hov adds to his suit the fact that the owners were not transparent about the condition of Aspiro's business structure, which the rapper says was much worse than reported.
One of the shareholders, Schibsted, says it did nothing wrong in the business transaction.
"We want to point out that it was a publicly traded company that was acquired, [which means] transparency of financial reporting [was required]," Communications Manager Anders Rikter said to Norwegian publication Dagens Næringsliv. "Otherwise we have no comments.”
Upon its one year anniversary, TIDAL reported three million subscribers worldwide. Kanye West's The Life of Pablo was reportedly streamed 250 million times in the first 10 days after its February release.
TIDAL has had its fair share of hiccups in its one year of existence, going through three CEOs, experiencing a leak of Rihanna's ANTI album and facing lawsuits from Birdman over the release of Lil Wayne's Free Weezy Album and a separate suit from independent artist John Emanuele for what he claims is unfair compensation.

My source is simple math. You keep asking me how it was true but even you can't explain how a few million subscribers and free trial 🤬 listened to TLOP 83 times a week. You dodging using logic and simple math. The numbers tidal submitted themselves to the press don't add up. I don't need a source for that lol. -

For the numbers not to add up you'd have to have all the numbers to try and add.... Do you know how many free trials streamed the album??? You don't right??? All you know is the 3 million...... 🤬 talking bout simple math but don't even have the numbers to add with...... Lol -

Even if they had 7 million free trial users and 3 million users each tidal users (regardless of musical preferences) would have had to listen to tlop 25 times in 10 days. That is damn near impossible. Especially since not every user is listening to Kanye on tidal. The numbers don't add up even if you look at the best cast scenario in user base. -

I remember a year or two ago seeing this pic or video of this girl with an abundance of smartphones (like 20 of the 🤬 ) playing an album on all the devices to get streaming numbers up. Iirc, it was around when IYRTITL came out, so I mean, if muthafuckas are as big of stans as they show they are it might not be too farfetched. -
