Tidal, Qobuz, Spotify, Apple Music, Google Play Music. On sound quality Qobuz is the top and they do hi res streaming too. Next is Tidal which is also a lossless streaming services. I had a subscription to Deezer HiFi but discontinued it. On the ease of use parameter Spotify is #1 followed closely by Apple music.

Hi @R2D2 I am sorry to say that I cant have Qobuz is my Country Denmark, that is why I use Tidal/Deezer.
Did we talk about music or video?
For music I only use YouTube (not payed nor with account at all) but I mostly use my local music as I buy CDs

I use Spotify mainly for background on SONOS - For HQ (I suppose it's personal streaming) a mixture of around 1300 ripped CD's & downloaded FLAC albums that I can listen to in 3 rooms, streamed from HD in this PC but going to lash out on a new NAS

Zero, I don't watch videos and if I want to listen to music I crank up my 5.1 system and shake the walls.

I'll watch a short clip on Youtube maybe once or twice a month, and yes I watch tv, but never on a small screen, always on my 65 inch set.

Yes, I am old school v.2.Analog LPs, CDs and radio. Live radio, curated by human DJs who care about the music they play.
Programming such as movies and sports need to be watched on a big screen, 55+ inches.
Music should be listened to with large speakers and a sub-woofer that can shake your windows, if you so choose.
A cell phone is for calls, texts, emails and occasionally checking for something on the web.
A computer is for shopping, banking, and reading web sites, (text only, no audio or video) and business tasks.
Watching a movie on a phone or tablet is wrong.
Listening to music with teeny weeny earbuds is also wrong.

You can stream to a big screen. I say as I watch Star Trek: TNG on Blu-Ray on a comfy couch. But, usually we stream most things to the same tv.

My only problem with the radio is modern radio’s amount of time for commercial. Which I know is a necessity to keep things running these days.Analog LPs, CDs and radio. Live radio, curated by human DJs who care about the music they play.

I listen to internet-radio on Roon Audio Player or CherryPlayer, the last I only have installed because of its very good free online radio.

Heaps of stations available on Sonos with thier radio app & have MyTunes app on too, I like listening to Irish stations & also some deep south USA music - Can play that in here on Sonos speakers & in lounge on Sonos AMP & my speakers, all good & free - Always had 'traditional Hi-Fi' (whatever that is) until last year
For those who susbcribed to streaming services do you use any of the HiRes portable music player below to play HiRes music like MQA, DXD, DSD or even 24bit/192KHz or higher up to 32-bit 768KHz PCM/DXD?
