Amazon HD streaming service ...

As you probably know, Amazon has a HD streaming service, which sends High Quality Audio files, as opposed to their standard service, which I understand is Mpeg3.    Has anyone tried it and if so, any comments? 

We are currently on Spotify Premium with AAC files, since my daughter set it up and had a couple thousand songs on various playlists she moved to our account.   The playlists are great but I would like to get better sound quality and, frankly, since I am a Prime member, it is also $3 less a month.   $3 less and better sound quality, what is not to like?

Also, does anyone have any idea how to transfer the playlists to a new service?   

Thanks,

Robert

I tried Amazon HD but dropped it. It would not let me get best-quality output on my PC, nor would it send output to a network renderer (streamer). If you look around, you will find those complaints repeated by many. That makes Amazon HD a great solution for listening on a smartphone, but not flexible enough for me to integrate with my hi-fi.


I kept my Qobuz subscription.
