Hi Guys - Bluesound devices running BlueOS version 2.1.4 now have access to lossless streaming from Deezer HiFi. I've been using Deezer for a couple months and believe it's much better than Tidal when it comes to selecting music for me with it's Flow feature. 

 

Here's the word from Lenbrook / bluesound. 

 

 

"Deezer HiFi is Now Available on All BluOS-Enabled Products

For the first time, Deezer HiFi subscribers will be able to enjoy millions of songs in lossless CD-quality at 16-bit FLAC and stream it to any BluOS-enabled wireless speaker, stereo component or home theater for a high-fidelity listening experience."

So your recommendation is based on what it recommends you listen to?

Pretty strong words in your thread title.

Gapless isn't something mainstream companies think about. We'll need to contact Deezer and follow up to make sure this gets in there. 

Huh?  Gapless playback isn’t “mainstream”?  You mean as in CDs, records, tapes, etc.?
