Tidal isn’t having the most well-received launch.  As Ari Herstand points out, a lot of fans of the service’s celebrity co-owners are pretty vocal about their dislike.

Over the weekend Tidal released two new exclusives from Rihanna and Beyoncé.

The new Rihanna track is called “American Oxygen”.  She performed the track at March Madness Music Fest before premiering it on Tidal, so there’s plenty of videos of the song online.<!–/*

The track has already been ripped and uploaded to YouTube, over and over again.

Some of the tracks have been removed because of copyright infringement, but there’s plenty more online.

Tidal may have exclusives, but it’s pretty hard to keep them exclusive.
