I have a high fidelity sound system in my living room and for my computer and being able to hear more depth and clarity when listening to music will be greatly appreciated. The music will sound closer to the original recording. We have been wanting this quality for some time and it's a joy to hear that it's going to be happening. I think I speak for everyone with high fidelity music equipment that this update coming to Spotify is a huge deal. Lossless quality has been one of the most requested features here in the Spotify Community, and now it is becoming a reality. High fidelity sound will offer more depth and clarity while you are enjoying your favorite songs. Stream On: Spotify announces new HiFi sound qualit.ĭuring Spotify's Stream On event it was announced that starting later this year, Premium subscribers will be able to upgrade their sound quality to Spotify HiFi and listen to music the way artists intended, in CD-quality, lossless audio via their devices and Spotify Connect -enabled speakers.All together, CEO Daniel Ek hopes to reach a billion more people in 36 additional languages. Much of the growth will take place in Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean. Currently, the streamer is in 93 markets, so the plan to add 80 more is staggeringly ambitious. Of less interest to current Spotify users but much greater concern to their shareholders is the company’s goal of global domination. Still, a deep-pocketed competitor is by no means a death sentence - after all, Amazon Music unveiled an HD option in 2019, and those smaller platforms have managed just fine. But the news has to send a shudder down the spines of music execs at places like TIDAL, Deezer, and Qobuz, where high-end audio fidelity is one of the features that has allowed them to stand out. Spotify is remaining tight-lipped on their Hi-Fi plans, declining to reveal what sized audio files they’ll be rolling out, when the new tier will introduced, or how much it will cost. At Spotify’s Stream On event on Monday, February 22nd, the music streaming giant announced it would be introducing a new high-fidelity audio tier and expanding into 80 additional markets (via Billboard).
The big green circle is about to get even bigger.
