Sorry. umcomoressed = uncompressed.
Spotify expected to launch umcomoressed streaming
Spotify is prepping the launch of a lossless audio version of its streaming service, according to The Verge. The new subscription tier is said to be called Spotify Hi-Fi and will offer higher bandwidth lossless audio quality to members.
I believe the price is regular pricing plus $10 per month but I am not sure.
Does anyone have more info on this new Spotify lossless service?

from what i read it's merely gauging demand/testing at this point--they have no definitive rollout plans and the president expressed some concern about whether potential users would accept the delay/latency attributable to the higher bandwidth. it does seem inevitable that they will have lossless at some point, however, which is gonna make it hard on tidal to survive. |
I would only switch if I am saving at least $5 over monthly subscription plus MQA streaming. Tidal already streaming MQA via its desktop app and I am looking forward to mobile app upgrade. I love Tidal HI-FI streaming and they have got all of my favorite albums. IMO, Spotify is behind the competition (as far as HI-FI streaming and MQA). |
