Not sure if this is new news or not, but sounds like they are launching at a minimum a CD-quality service described as lossless. No mention of HiRes.
Doesn’t mean that they’ll integrate with Roon any more than currently. Kind of can’t imagine that this would shift their likelihood to do what Roon requires. But will shift the dynamics between Tidal/Qobuz and Spotify - as many here have pointed out, the discovery and recommendations services within Spotify are great for a big portion of people, so if lossless Redbook were high enough resolution/ quality for that group of people some of them might move to Spotify.
Discuss.
