Spotify HiFi worth signing up for?

Spotify is excellent for music discovery. Its suggestions are much better than Tidal’s.  I listen to Tidal on my main system and with wired headphones.  Spotify is used when I listen via Bluetooth or at my desk through good but non-audiophile speakers.  I plan to dive into Roon later this year, which will excuse some major GAS.  At that time, I plan to switch from Tidal (current system unfolds MQA) to Qobuz.

I already have Spotify, along with Qobuz, Tidal, and Pandora. 

Spotify has the best AI based playlists based on my listening habits, so I can always count on the My Mix and Discover Weekly to deliver music I enjoy without having to spend a lot of time looking for what I want. 

The lack of hi-res has not been an issue because I listen to it most often in my car through my phone's connection to my stereo.  Having hi-res content available will be a bonus and I'll probably listen to it at home more often when that becomes available.

Free trials (when available) then decide, that’s my plan. 

My only opinion is wait until it happens.
