A question for those in the know about streaming FM/Music sound quality

Hi all, 
I am a long time audio person with experience in most of the great names you would know, Audio Research, Magnepan, Magnum Dynalab...and most other brands you could think of.  Was in the audio business at one time and attended shows throughout the world.  That said, I do not know much of anything about "streaming" music.  
I listen to classic Jazz and female vocals mainly and would like to know more about streaming and especially if it can be a high end audiophile source.  Not interested in quantity as much as quality.  
Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge.

I used to be into high end FM tuners, all I’ve found with internet streaming is compression. If you have DAB or DAB+ (digital audio broadcast) transmission, it to me now is the best quality, especially if you take the digital output if it has one from your DAB tuner to your own dac, almost as good as CD replay on a good transport/dac.
