I'd like to know more about Tidal

WHAT IS IT?
This is Jay Z's subscription based music service. He bought it from someone else and relaunched it recently. It has lossless quality available and works with sonos(!).

IS IT GOOD?
Probably, but it costs $10 for the standard sub (same as spotify) and $20 for the lossless sub. It has a couple artists that are going to exclusively be available via Tidal but nobody I really care about. It won't be around long (in its current form/price point).

SUMMARY
It's probably good but I'm not going to use it until it can offer something more unique or a lower price

GRADE:
C+

Nebraska Brewing Company

WHAT IS IT?
It's an Omaha brewery and brewpub

IS IT GOOD?
They make excellent beer. They just started canning so that's good. Their small batch 750ml are really unique and worth trying but they are like $20 a bottle. Their brewpub is fine but it's in an awful area of town in the middle of some low/medium shopping center so I never go there.

SUMMARY
Good beer you should try if you run into it but don't go out of your way to visit the brewpub

GRADE:
B-

Claussen dill pickles

WHAT IS IT?
A dill pickle that has to stay refrigerated

IS IT GOOD?
Yes, as dill pickles go they are probably the gold standard. More crisp than others but somewhat bland for my taste. They stay crisp better than most pickles.

SUMMARY
A good standard dill pickle if you want a standard dill pickle.

GRADE:
B-

Tennis

WHAT IS IT?
This is a sport played between two or 4 people. You hit a small ball with a racket over a net back and forth. It's considered a "lifetime sport" meaning it can be played by people of any age.

IS IT GOOD?
Yes, it's pretty good if you find the right conditions. However, you need to have a partner who is available to play and good weather (unless you find an indoor facility).

SUMMARY
If you happen to have family or friends who play and don't live somewhere where it's windy or rainy or cold all the time then you should play this.

GRADE:
B+

Nissan Maxima

WHAT IS IT?
This is the flagship Nissan Sedan

IS IT GOOD?
I don't know, maybe. At this price point they're competing with BMW/Lexus/Mercedes entry level cars though. You can also save a few dollars and get a Honda Accord or something similar.

SUMMARY
It's a quality 4 door sedan that I wouldn't buy

Snapchat

WHAT IS IT?
It's an app that lets you share pictures, videos, etc. for short periods of time. The person who gets the picture and video then looks at it but it's gone forever after a short period. In actuality there are ways you can save the pics/vids.

IS IT GOOD?
Do you like to look at short clips of kat kid's kid? Then this if for you!

SUMMARY
It's ok. Would probably be more exciting if I wasn't in my 30s and my friends sent me n00ds instead of pics of their kids/dogs/etc.

B

Los Angeles

WHAT IS IT?
A west coast city that's really spread out

IS IT GOOD?
Compared to other cities of very large size I'd say it's below average. It has a lot to offer but public transit/traffic is terrible. Airport is acceptable but not good. It has movie and TV stuff if you're into movies and TV.

SUMMARY
A big city with too many cars and no way to efficiently get people around to where they want to go

Upstream Dundee Scotch Ale

WHAT IS IT?
A smoky, malty, dark scottish ale brewed by Upstream Brewing Company in Omaha, NE

IS IT GOOD?
If you like scotch ales you will like this one. It's not as robust as some and is very easy to drink so use that to gauge if you will like it.

SUMMARY
An excellent scotch ale for scoth ale like'ers

GRADE:
A
