I blame the Europeans...

Stuff is coming all the way from Europe! At least TIDAL and QOBUZ are.

Spotify NEVER fails, nor did BEATS when I had it, but they are only 320kbps. Laptop lags once in a while, easy to see with the QOBUZ player as the tracks load into a buffer/cache with an indicator line filling up as the track plays, much like YouTube player.

And much like YouTube, sometimes a 10 minuter track loads in 30 seconds, sometimes it barely keeps up with the track as it plays, and when the track wins the race...

I doubt that the SONOS device has much of a buffer/cache to load large tracks.






First they came for the dumb-asses
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a dumb-ass
