best hi res streaming service for jazz?

I listen to a lot of jazz.  I'm a jazz musician by profession and want to have access to not just the greatest hits but lesser known albums.  Is there a hi res streaming service that is better than the others for their jazz catalog?  I am currently using the pay-for version of Spotify which gives me CD quality but I'd like to investigate the hi-res world.  Spotify has a pretty good jazz catalog.  Do any of the hi res services have comparable catalogs?  a good classical catalog is also a plus

Thanks

Stratman, I have used Tidal, Qobuz and Spotify. Now I only use Qobuz and I prefer its jazz catalogue and sound quality over the other two. BTW, Jazz is my favorite musical idiom but not a fan of "free jazz"

Thanks guys!  I think I'm gonna try a Qobuz trial and see what they have on offer.  Strateahed, AmazonHD sounds good but I don't think my ultraRendu supports it.

@tubersist I'm also not a fan of free jazz.  I prefer to pay for it :)

Not a service per se, but the newly created jazzcast.ca online radio is pretty modern sounding.

Created by the women of JazzFM 91, Toronto.

Re Amazon. Will the full cd quality come through using my Samsung Note10+ cellphone as receiver? And then I need to get it to my OPPO 205 to play in my stereo? (I think my handle here should be  'dinosoah'.)
