“When I start playing a song, pull the Ethernet cable, and the song plays on for the duration, like it does with Tidal, what effect is the cable having?”

There won’t be any music to play if there was no cable between the switch and renderer to begin with....so by pulling Ethernet cable proves nothing 😉

Eggs ackly! It proves nothing. If it did prove anything audiophiles would be lining up in droves for car CD players that have a similar feature. Perfect sound forever! It’s only 1s and 0s! Whatever.

So you can't answer simple questions like what happens to the SQ when the Ethernet cable is pulled and the song still plays? 

I get it that you have no clue how this stuff works but it at least should be a 'woke' moment for you...

 You must be using wireless.
