Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: streaming is one thing....

Actually, the most important thing to my enjoyment of listening to any format digital music has been how resolved it sounds after it's been converted back to analog.

If I am aware of "digital sound contouring" in the sound, the whole process of what happened up to the point of my listening was a fail as
far as I'm concerned. There are any number of ways to process the music up to the point I've spoken of ,but they are all really just a means to get the signal to the step of becoming a listenable format that our ears recognize as analog sound. There has to be DAC at the end of the processing chain or there will be no music to hear.

Everything may work without spending extra $$$ on a Dedicated DAC , but it
comes down to how resolving do you need your music to sound ? There's a line between what the cost of something is in regard to how much value you
will derive from it,that only you can determine.
