Tidal begins offering a beta desktop app for Mac and Windows users. The app will offer  access to 35 million songs, 75,000 videos, gapless play, as well as support for Mac Airplay and DAC.  The app will come with updated features, including a more prominent offline mode bar, concert tickets via Ticketmaster, updated search, more personalization options and a retooled menu for simplicity. The Compnay also says it will offer a discount program for students who have .edu addresses. Both of its payment plans will now be slashed in half for students.
