You can reasonably use Tidal to find new suggestions and plex to actually listen to stuff. That's basically what I do. Tidal's algorithm for discovering new music is better than Spotify's imo, was pleasantly surprised when I switched because of plex/tidal integration. The biggest pain will be the initial Tidal setup with music preferences (likes/dislikes etc)
I will say though that Tidal/Plex integration is far from perfect, I initially got it to mix my downloads with a streaming service and quickly discovered plex cannot download Tidal songs which put a huge dent in my plans.
I had high hopes for the plex/tidal integration. But it is not ready yet. Hoping they can improve upon it, when things worked it was great.
Would be awesome if tidal or Spotify had a lower cost “discovery” account that had a limited number of streams per month that could integrate with plex/plexamp to stream AND provide recommendations. But I think the market for the is probably too small for them.
