Why not make a paid plugin for free Volumio? Maybe about 40-50 USD?

The Virtuoso MyVolumio plan (including Tidal) is $35.

Edit: unless you mean a one off price for a plugin.
Would love to see this option - one off price for extra Tidal connect plugin.
Currently, Volumio does not have a facility to allow single plugins to be purchased at one-off.
We are working on such a feature for the future.

It would be good. I don’t understand why you haven’t been able to answer 6 months until now with the answer to the question of whether this feature will be available on free Volumio. The question was here at least 3 times over time, you kept people in suspense unnecessarily. So I didn’t have any sympathy for the Volumio team, quite the opposite. So boys, I can’t praise your approach.
You’re right, it was asked before and I did not answer, that slipped off my radar (as many other questions, now that I see them while reading the whole thread).
We will pay further attention in the future to questions such as that: I gave it for granted that TC would be part of MyVolumio plans, now I realize that for some that was not clear.
For the future, you can expect us to always follow our policy: if it requires a substantial investment and its not already part of free offer, we will make them available for MyVolumio people.

Personally, I think it has been pretty clear that Tidal & Qobuz support is a part of the MyVolumio plans, rather than opensource Volumio. Yes, it has been raised a few times in this very long topic, where there is an incredible amount of background, not always helpful noise, where it is very easy to miss individual posts.

Agreed. The software is literally free and the subscription is a steal.

I am currently using MyVolumio with a Virtuoso subscription on an Odroid C2 and I noticed that the device no longer appears on the software downloads page. Will this update that adds Tidal Connect be available for the C2? Also I am wondering if the device is still being actively supported since it is no longer listed on the downloads page. Thanks!
Support is still there, as a community porting.
As we speak, new versions are being built for Odroid, started an hour ago with the C1, C4 just finished. Give me some time to update the info.
You will find it in the Community Portings under Odroid.
Anything related to myVolumio will be in future versions, there is no plan to abandon the C1/C2 family.
Thank you, will I continue to receive updates on the device by going to settings/system?
yes
The C2 is now EOL (no production), and is no longer actively supported, but have a look at Volumio 3 Beta Testing - Odroid images. Sorry, I don’t know how this will affect Tidal Connect.
Edit: oh gkkpch types faster than me 
Haha, thank you for your response. I can find another use for the C2, would I be better off switching to a Raspberry Pi for Volumio?

Tidal Connect will be a part of the myVolumio subscription as @Volumio explained, so it will end up in the C1/C2 builds too.
Maybe updates are not as fast/frequent as with RPi, but a little rattle in the portings thread certainly helps.
Thank you.
OK, let’s go back on-topic
Any (more recent) news about when this will be released? It was last said it will be available mid week.
We are currently checking in all supported devices, it’s a matter of days.
On v2877, it works! Amazing good job! I guess is not possible to play in sync multiroom? Should be available by tidal app?
