There was a thread some time ago....

where someone posted a link that suggested that the record labels were putting some kind of sonic fingerprint onto the data files they sent to the streaming services and they subject of the link was TIDAL.

I heard such a 'warbling' on one track when playing from TIDAL but surprisingly not when streaming the same track from QOBUZ.

Go figure.

I mostly stream obscure classical stuff, things hard to find on CD, which QOBUZ has the edge on. That said, QOBUZ is close to insolvent and sometimes has certain labels in the catalog and then a week later they do not play. :-(


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