Qobuz Users Update?

As I previously reported, I am anxiously waiting for Qobuz to complete their API for my Aurender N10 music server so I can sort my album favorites by artist name.  This API will help me find my albums.   Aurender Customer Support reports they are also waiting for the API related rollout information.  They will need to update their Conductor App.  Other server type vendors will also need to implement the API assuming they decide to support it.

I emailed Qobuz today and asked when they expect to release the API that will enable me to sort my album favorites by artist name, etc.  Sorting my albums into artist name sequence is a high priority item for me so I am looking for its rollout.

I have dropped Tidal Streaming so Qobuz is my only quality streaming service and I like it very much.

I use a Lumin/Qobuz and the music sounds as good as vinyl/CD.  IMO The user interface needs work!

Hopefully both Qobuz and Lumin will soon improve their respective software inter face(s) and would be wise to take a page from Apple.

Qobuz reports “Our API is completely revamping the whole system in order to provide first in class metadata to our third party partners. I don't have a time line for you outside of early falll 2019. I wish I could provide you with more information about it”.    

I do not know what the first in class metadata means.   Maybe our 3rd party Apps will have access to additional album info.    So, now, we wait a little longer.  

Qobuz has 117 available playlists and they are terrific. For example, listen to Prestige 70 Jazz classics for 70 handpicked jazz tracks.  Many of them are in the hi-res format.  

This Qobuz playlist is 7 hours and 38 minutes long. This makes listening to music very easy.  Enjoy.   

On my Aurender, I go to the playlist tab and look for Qobuz playlists that I like.  The Conductor App has a search option for the 117 playlists. This is very useful to find interesting playlists. .
