“Apple Music head can’t differentiate lossless and compressed audio, says format is a “marketing play”. “
Can’t differentiate !???… so why to bother upgrading your stream service !? Really?

Does that surprise anyone? I said awhile ago that lossless was bs.

Having one of the heads of Apple saying that only goes to show you that even tone deaf people can fail, upwards.

Everyone on this forum can try this for themselves. Many have, and many have heard a difference.

The fact that some cannot tell the difference between fine wine and modest wine isn't a slight against good wine.

I wouldn’t say for others cause equipment role is matter, but for me the difference is obvious. Recently I compared Fairytales (The Original Master Edition) album by Radka Toneff & Stive  Dobrogosz at Apple Lossless and at Tidal Master and for me the winner is definitely Tidal version. The difference is dramatic. However I agreed with fiesta75 that the term “Lossless” is useless !
