Storage is so cheap, you can store plenty of FLAC files, burnt to CD if the album is good enough. I stream at 1,411kbps, 16/44.1 kHz. Deezer. Ears are fine.

So hifi it aint. But real music streaming services usually are significantly better than that. Deezer and Tidal, as mentioned, reckon to stream CD quality FLAC, and Spotify Premium (which I use) reckons to stream Ogg at 320kbs (256kbs on some platforms). I find this to be entirely acceptable, especially given that most of the music I listen to was recorded on analogue tape long before digital recording started being used anyway (late 70s). Would I pay a small supplement to get streaming at SACD quality? Yes. But I wont hold my breath waiting for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
