DSD coming to Qobuz streaming?

It looks like DSD files will soon stream on Qobuz - this may take some of the wind out of the sails of HDTracks and MQA. Some DSD recordings are already available for download, such as this classic from Boston.

I checked with Qobuz directly and was told there will be "an official announcement soon."

That's nice but I'd rather they offered multichannel.

In any event the DSD library at one time was mentioned would be in the 100k+  region of classic music of all types ,I was have been patiently waiting for something 

I now seriously doubt will ever happen if you got even 500 ,mainly orchestral 

is just more hype,   Sort of like MQA the New game changer now 

just a different style lightbulb that failed to live up to its own hype !!

MQA is dead on Tidal. This was announced a few days ago. FLAC is pretty sweet and will fully displace it anyway. DSD is definitely nice, but have to have a DAC that supports it.

Not currently streaming, but DSD would be worth a game changer for me.  I would definitely sign up.
