Being managed by Google cloud, it already is covered to the highest standard. I do have some suspicion if the delay is because they intend to simply re-write the entire program and apps from the ground up in preparation for a new platform-image direction rather than simply update them with the functionality.īecause of the already available formats and format requirements are negligible, the issue you raised is mostly logistic, with price of streaming and storage infrastructure being the dominant factor. It only needs to add a format standard to the player that has existed for 3 decades in order to make the switch. Wider availability and Android support came in July. Even through local files, admittedly, only MP3 is supported currently, however the ability to play additional formats wouldn't be difficult to introduce because hey, its 2021. Unlike Spotify that announced HiFi back in February and has still not rolled out even a public beta, Apple Music announced Lossless and Hi-Res Lossless audio alongside Spatial audio in May and started rolling out the feature in June. What really matters is mentioned in a comment somewhere in this thread, and that is in the platform - what formats and quality range they actively support. Spotify said that HiFi audio would be available later this year in select markets. Spotify even take (thus already hold) upwards of FLAC as a baseline through direct uploads, and if higher qualities are not submitted, then only the highest resolution formats are available on the music services. The Spotify HiFi is a lossless tier that will be the company’s premium subscription. During its live Spotify Stream On event today, the streaming music company announced that it will launch. File submissions are for the largest part dealt with via large labels and/or aggregate services, which already hold all of these files that already are used for practically every other service. Spotify will add a lossless hi-fi option later this year. Published Later this year, Premium subscribers will be able to upgrade to lossless streaming on Spotify.
