MQA....again.


Just received the below article in my Google links:

My

initial gut reaction was something along the lines of "oh for crying out loud, leave it alone, this isn’t needed". They state their mission is to rival Qobuz and Tidal.

I’m not sure there’s enough room in the marketplace, what with Qobuz, Tidal (post-MQA), Spotify, Amazon etc; but who knows. That's without  even getting into the whole MQA debacle

MQA is fine as a niche thing if people want it. Had it become dominant it could have negatively affected the industry - end to end systems always have issues (HDCP!) - but so what if it exists at the fringes. 

I think if there is going to be another streaming service it's going to need to be different. Having the same catalog alone doesn't make sense. 

A streaming service that had the whole catalog and then exclusive content like white glove high quality remixes you cannot get elsewhere...that would be cool.
