Happy Friday all, Hope I'm posting this in the right section. So being a newbie, I just came to the realization last night that my Spotify premium membership's 320 Kbps "extreme" quality is nothing more than high-quality MP3. As such, when I get home tonight I'm going to sign up for the free 30-day trial of Tidal's HiFi Flac streaming service. I've had my Cambridge Audio DacMagic Plus and Dynaudio Excite X14A speakers set up for about a week now, and have yet to hear a high-quality lossless file played on them (just realized this last night too). I realize that some here will likely tell me to try both when I get home tonight and decide for myself, however, I'm curious as to what you all think, and have experienced between the two (I've read all of the opinions I can find online - what a confusing mess). Given that I have a pretty decent system, do you guys think that a significant quality increase will be had using Tidal's 1411 Kbps service vs Spotify's 320 Kbps service? |

" I use VNC from my Ipad". Does anyone know of an equivalent for Android? |

VNC is available for pretty much all platforms.
