Many other music fanatics will not notice much of a difference between the audio and sound quality offered by any of the above-mentioned streaming services or even the higher resolution streaming apps.
Speaking of audiophiles, the “loving listening” of pure audio and good audio quality is not an objective designation in the narrower sense, but rather subjectively to be interpreted for the respective person. The Absolute Sound gave Qobuz its 2019Golden Ear Award, saying “I find Qobuz to be essential,” Hi-Fi Choice named Qobuz its 2019 Grouptest Winner, calling it “The best all-round streaming service available … the one to beat,” and in a contest of sound quality focusing on classical-specialized streamers, the Los Angeles Times declared “Qobuz is the king.While brands like Spotify, iTunes, YouTube Music, and Amazon Prime Music are some of the most well-known in the music streaming industry, there is a certain niche of streaming services popular specifically among audiophiles. Since its February US launch, Qobuz’ superior streaming experience has drawn acclaim from the audiophile community and beyond. With headquarters in Paris, Qobuz was the first streaming service to offer Hi-Res streaming in studio quality, native 24-bit FLAC format. Qobuz does all this because our users’ passion for music is worth it!” Our unequalled editorial and curation in specialist genres, and our focus on the culture around music and audio will continue to create value for listeners. With the new plan, we will be pouring gasoline on the growth that has been kindled by our unique relationships in the premium audio hardware and retail industries. Studio Premier is a special offer we’ve been dying to make.
QOBUZ PRICE PLUS
Qobuz will still offer its unique Sublime+ plan, now priced at $249.99/year, which includes all the streaming offerings, plus a substantial discount on Hi-Res download purchases from the Qobuz store ( )ĭan Mackta, Managing Director of Qobuz USA, says: “MP3 is really bad for music, artists, and listeners - so Qobuz is saying ‘no’ to MP3 and now offers only real studio quality in one accessible plan. The new Studio Premier plan is a limited time promotion available to the first 100,000 new Qobuz subscribers (plus existing users), who will receive unlimited access to over 50 million tracks in certified Hi-Res or CD lossless quality, along with Qobuz’s exclusive, in-depth editorial and metadata content, for $14.99/month, or $149.99/year). Their new offer is another big step towards making Hi-Res streaming available at the same cost as MP3 streaming today.” Neil Young, a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member artist whose early support and ongoing enthusiasm for Hi-Res are well-documented, says: “Qobuz sounds great! Qobuz was one of the earliest Hi-Res streamers. With their maximum quality plan now available for one accessible price, Qobuz is the first streaming service to say goodbye to the increasingly archaic MP3 and is making Hi-Res and lossless the new standard in the belief that everyone deserves the best quality sound. Beginning today, Qobuz streamlines its monthly offering to one $14.99 plan that includes unlimited access to its entire Hi-Res and CD lossless catalogue (as low as $12.50 per month with a yearly plan). Qobuz, the Hi-Res music service that launched in the US this February, is completely eliminating its MP3 (lossy) streaming tier.
