" Sublime+, should it ever make it to our shores."

If ever indeed. Qobuz' expansions plans this year involve adding Italy (done) and Spain and Poland later in the year. That will give them a reach to 7 EU member states by the year end. Only another 21 to go! Then there is the rest of Europe. Of course if their contracts with suppliers defines "EU Member States" for the contries to be served and not country by country, which I suspect could well be the case as this is typical these days in our single market, then not only will the USA not be supplied but I will lose my UK connection when we Brexit.

NB: the "free sample" playlist from Qobuz for Sublime + appears to offer mainly 16/44.1 files which is weird in the circumstances. There is one 24/44.1 file. I have queried this with them and await their response. I thought that my DAC's display may have been misbehaving but, no, 16/44.1 is shown in the Qobuz app itself for these tracks.
