What other streaming services do you recommend besides Tidal?

Been having quite a few dropout issues with Tidal of late and no it is not my connection.
These were commonplace late last year, seemed to stop but of last few days have returned with a vengeance especially later at night (higher demand/usage I suppose?).
So as $20 a month is no joke for sporadic service and lack lustre customer service I would like to know who uses what other service for hires streaming?
Your experiences, problems if any, quality etc.
I know my Vault shows me at least 15 other options besides Tidal but I really know nothing of them.
Thank you

I use Tidal and Spotify. I really don't notice a significant difference, but Tidal is a bit cleaner sounding. I like Spotify because it has a super inclusive catalog (Tidal is more for contemporary music), and it has an easier interface for finding different composers. With Tidal, you have to know what you want to listen to
I tried Deezer, but it had an annoying problem of suddenly stopping mid track and starting at the beginning. Customer service was spotty and I dropped them before the trial ended. Sound quality was as good as Tidal.
Quobuz is supposed to come to the US soon. Google it and sign up for updates.

Like mahler mentioned, classical on Tidal is pretty slim pickens.
Though Spotify has lower sound quality, I still find myself using it.
Hopefully, Quobuz will offer an alternative.
