[QUOTE="Nerdy1980s, post: 8747219, member: 683073"] I don't think spotify has HD audio, but Tidal and I think Amazon both has HD audio. That being said, I usually download Spotify at High and not Very High. I'm sure on a high end system, you could tell the difference. But that's on a really good speakers only. But if your going in that direction for audio quality, you might as well just go with a streaming service that offers true HD audio, because you can actually tell the difference between MP3 and HD audio. (I'm mostly talking about CD quality audio. It's a whole different ball game if your buying newer music that was recorded specifically for Blu-Ray Audio. (Forget off hand the exact name of that format.) FYI: regular Blu-Rays and 4k movie discs both use Blu-ray audio. So if your getting, say, a Blu-ray of a classical concert (with video), your also getting Blu-Ray audio quality. Of course blu-ray/4k movies all have blu-ray audio quality. [/QUOTE]
