    There is a catch, however. Spotify’s lossless option tops out at 24-bit / 44.1 kHz FLAC. Apple Music, Tidal, and Qobuz all offer HiRes FLAC support at up to 24-bit / 192 kHz. Granted, once you start entering 24-bit FLAC territory it can get pretty hard to tell the difference unless you’re a particularly demanding audiophile with a soundsystem priced in the same range as a used sedan.

    I was about the point out the pedantry in the first half, but they covered themselves. Anyone who says they can hear this difference is fooling themselves.
