Amazon HD Lower Price

It's nice to see for a change, while it lasts, the consumer benefit from competition, stimulating both lower prices, and technological innovation.

What @redwoodaudio said. Except i will go one further. I will not give bozo’es the clown one penny. I will pay 10 x the price for quobuz to keep them going.

Interesting news about Apple jumping into what seems like a small piece of the music streaming pie. I’m wondering if streamer makers, like Lumin and the like, will include Apple or Amazon in their native apps. Can this be done with a firmware upgrade? If not, how many audiophiles would go with either.For those who don’t mind shelling out money to Apple, the new Apple TV that came out this month, has Dolby Atmos. But if It can only be realized going into a SSP that has Dolby Atmos, that’s not me. I have an Apple TV and use it with Apple Music. I run it into my Oppo UDP-205 - HDMI in.  For non HD, it sounds ok. I’ve been wanting to go with Qobuz or Tidal, but haven’t had the dough to get the streamer/DAC I want. I have literally a hundred playlists that I’ve spent a lot of time curating, so staying with Apple Music would be nice in that regard. Plus I listen to all kinds of music that may not be offered on Tidal. 

Spotify rumored to soon offer hi-fi tier.
