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."

I like DSD. I like FLAC and I like MQA. To me it’s like saying I hate apple pie and just wish every grocery store would offer my favorite pie, cherry. It’s really the best. BTW I have never tried blueberry… but really it can’t be the best. There is room for it all….. IMO.

Sure.  DSD would be nice but, imho, multichannel would be better.

SQ pecking order: DSD, then MQA, then hi res, then cd quality. But it also depends on the mastering process.
