Article: The Next Track: Episode 159 | Amazon Music HD

[Masterstroke]

I've been trying out the free Amazon HD and found it OK at the best. HD (16 bt ) was better than I'd experienced elsewhere including my own ALAC CD rips but the Ultra was nowhere near the SQ of Qobuz & Tidal top of the range streams. Also as I play on a number of devices (Mac mini desktop, another Mac mini connected to a AV system & a DAP) I wanted a proper favourites folder I can access with no issues like on Spotify & Qobuz, and also being able to integrate with Audirvana on my desktop. I'm in a position where I can make direct one on one comparisons and IMO Amazon doesn't really compare that well, so I'm not going to take up the subscription in three months & am sticking with Qobuz at around twice the price, but best of luck to those who find this suits them, it's actually very good value. Amazon may of course make improvements all round, in which case.....
