I decided to interject when I saw this because this is something I've been talking about for the longest time.
Right now, people stream movies, music, news videos, what have you, and somehow noncompressed music is an issue? For data on phones, perhaps, but elsewhere? I don't think so.
Also, there was a lot of misinformation about MQA files being the same size as CD-resolution files. They're not. CD resolution is 16-bit/44.1kHz, while MQA is 24/44.1 or 24/48. At minimum, they're 50% larger.
