Here Quboz is about 2X the price of Tidal hifi. Well, that's technically not true since Quboz is not offered here. But if I compare the UK price to Tidal hifi in Czech Republic it is.
I don't think anybody has sound quality issues with either service. Tidal user interface is terrible, Windows app is crap. Haven't used Quboz so I don't know. I think it mostly comes down to the catalogs. If you find one of them has most of the music you want get the cheaper one.
I would be OK with that if the quality and catalog is there. But last I checked Amazon Music was a joke. Admittedly, that's a while ago.

keep it short and simple like thisThis is what I’m seeing in the Roon app on my iPad mini.
Anyone having random MQA drop outs with the Pro-ject Pre Box S2 Digital?
Spent 70$ on a higher end cable, no dice. LPS on the way too.
Really appreciate your response. Guess I will have to save my pennies for a better DAC.I own that DAC too, and it has done the same thing to me. It is known to be more sensitive than most to imperfections in an MQA signal, and for not falling back smoothly to an undecoded format when that happens.

Although I just listened to most of the Sgt. Pepper's Deluxe album and not a single drop out.
Why you tease me like this Pro-ject? I want to love you.
Hope we save some people from spending their money on problematic MQA decoding.
Pro-Ject's testing and support of this entire product line have been disappointing. But your problem seems worse than most, and I look forward to seeing your reports if you try any of the suggestions you're getting on other forums, such as settling for MQB, or improving MQA performance by adding a USB clean-up accessory.
Already bought a Sonore Microrendu. Biggest single improvement I have ever heard from a single component change.Pro-Ject's testing and support of this entire product line have been disappointing.

As much as I want to throw more money to solve this issue. Most options will cost me an extra $200CAD.
And this doesn't even guarantee me a solution. Might have to sell this thing and get a better DAC.
Sucks, hopefully people stop buying this broken product.
