Streaming vs. CD

Is the digital signal of a server like Tidal of higher quality than that of a CD?

McGowen (PS Audio) also bought into it at first probably because the $$$ signs were flashing. Then later when this got out even before this vid, he quickly pulled out. Now the same is happening with these mega dollar boutique ac mains fuses, some that have around 1000% mark up. There’s a moto with these guys "follow the $$$" Cheers George

All this A/B’ing means nothing, if you’re not listening to the same issue of the album in both a/b’s. Are you listening to the compressed re-issues v the non compressed original release. Give us which one in your opening before saying anything on which sound better, and chances are you can’t because you can’t get the provenance with anything streamed or downloaded.
