Can we talk about Qobuz for a minute

MQA filles are smaller than Qubuz full HiRes. Tidal is very good if you Wifi or cellular speed is not fast or on the road. To me Tidal SQ is already as close as CD but if your home setting is HiRes, I will go Qobuz.

One thing streaming is missing IMO is the option to choose between different 'masterings'. This is an advantage physical media currently retains.

The streaming services are at the mercy of the record label or artist as to which albums they receive.

kgveteran,
" Is it pronounced   ko-buz"

I was speaking with Dan Mackta, Managing Director of Qobuz USA, at
RMAF '19.  And he pronounced it exactly like you are showing.
Possibly because he's a New Yorker?

At any rate, that is all really just minutia.  Call it whatever you like.

With respect to streaming SQ, I'll offer another vote for Qobuz. One hi-res listen on Qobuz to an album titled "A Little Driving Music" by Brian Bromberg will win you over. Qobuz has become my streaming choice for critical listening. I also subscribe to Deezer and enjoy that service very much for its curated playlists. Deezer currently provides "only" CD-quality streaming, but I consider it more than adequate. Between Deezer and Tidal, I'd choose Deezer, but for best quality, Qobuz is my pick.
