You can get hi res streaming from Tidal and a few others for a fee. There is high resolution streaming from some radio stations too.
A lot depends on your system. Do you want a "streamer" to program and work as a pre-amp/DAC or will you use a computer.
Personally, I use a PC running through a nice DAC and use the AUX inputs on my pre. I don't mind doing this because it's work and I'm in front of the PC all day. I can log onto any site I want or use Tidal. If you don't want to rely on a computer you should look into a streamer such as Bluesound.
I will say that hi res Tidal or good radio streaming will sound as good as most red book cd's in my system. A great DAC makes a world of differnce.
...just my 2 cents.
