Quick n' Dirty: The recent Tidal changes in VDJ2023

UPDATE 17th Oct 2023:
Tidal has now confirmed that a Hifi Plus subscription will be needed, starting Nov 16th 2023
UPDATE 18th Nov 2023:
Tidal is now enforcing the need for a Hifi Plus subscription. Other subscription types will simply give you an error

I'll get into

The future for online content and stems in DJ software

These are based on what I experience/think today on the 10th of October 2023. When things become more clear and/or something changes, I will add it to the top this description
