Set cue points on Tidal tracks and use Tidal tracks in a club

Hello,

I have my music catalog in Tidal. I want to use that tracks to Dj in a club on the CDJ's. In my opinion, this fits in the strategy I see with Pioneer and also with others, for example Beatport. But I get stuck in the proces figuring out how to accomplish this.

First. I want to set cue points on my Tidal tracks. And yes, I want to use Recordbox for that. Is this possible?

Second, I want to browse my Tidal Tracks on  a CDJ in a club. For example by connecting a phone (android or apple) with Recordbox on it. 

I think this should be possible, or become possible in the near future.

The first point, cue points, need some storage of that. So I think the cloud library sync to dropbox could take care of that. So the metadata (cue points) can be accessed also with recordbox on the phone. 

And the second one, is just a technical thing. And the purpuse is not to really use the Recordbox functioallity when Dj'ing, but just to get access to my tracks (and maybe cuepoints). And preferably by phone or tablet. 

I think setting cue points on Tidal tracks in Recordbox is not possible (yet?). So I am happy to hear if this will be possible in the near future.

And connecting, easily, to a CDJ in a club, to get acces to the Tidal tracks. That is an interesting one. Maybe using a laptop with Recordbox is the answer, maybe a phone with the Recordbox app. Don't know. The Recordbox app seems to have only soundcloud connection in it, no Tidal.

Or should I fall back to mp3/wav on a memory stick? So Convert my Tidal playlist to Beatport playlist, buy the tracks, download them, put them in Recordbox, Analyse, set cue points, sync to memorystick. What I can do, but feels so the other way around looking at the developments and strategy.

Your thoughs about this?
