It is probably due to their music licensing agreements. However, I just looked at Spotify and they say international access is available for Premium accounts, or 14 days for free accounts:I have a friend who works as an aircraft pilot and obviously travels all the time, he says facing issues in some countries. He can't connect to Qobuz because it's not available in that country, he is on their most premium subscription and can't even enjoy it.
Within all streaming service providers, only Deezer and Apple Music seems to work everywhere, why Tidal, Spotify and Qobuz don't allow connection to their customers abroad?
