Answers to you questions:
1. No - Naxos is broader in repertoire, but lower in sound quality than the equal-or-better-than-CD quality you get with Classics Online HD.
2. I would not say this is true for Classics Online HD. I suppose the question revolves around what you mean by "top pianists".
The reason I'm once again a subscriber to Classics Online HD is that I see is as an interesting supplement to my regular music library. I used to subscribe to Spotify too. Spotify's catalog is much broader, but the SQ is reduced to a bit rate of 320 kbps or lower, depending on whether you subscribe or listen for free. 320 kbps can be surprisingly good, but, personally, I prefer lossless CD-quality or better - another reason I go for Classics Online HD.
