don’t say it too loud the nerds on here will be angry at you (you’re already getting down voted for no reason)

do a blind test between ogg 320kbps which Spotify premium uses and FLAC and tell me your score then

my point is, if you’re not working on that audio, there is no audible difference between two

why all this fuss about lossless audio? Spotify premium is literally indistinguishable from lossless audio for 99.9% of the population and songs (because not all songs will be lossless or are even mastered in a way that makes a difference). granted if…

• you have the right hardware
• you have the ear trained to hear compression
• you picked a song that has audible compression artifacts however small they may be
• you are in a quiet room
• you are actively looking for compression artifacts

you may hear a difference. if you think otherwise, then do a lossy vs lossless blind test and be impressed that you actually cannot hear the difference most of the time (especially without actively looking for the artifacts)
