AAAAAAAAGH, you sent me down a rabbithole again! To be fair, a lot of the music I listen to probably only exists in CD quality at best, but if I'm going to pay money I want the option of having the best there is. Thanks for letting me know about this!

Well you won't find anything better than CD quality on any streaming service since it's pretty large. A single FLAC can be a few hundred MBs large and you won't really be able to tell the difference. Also it's extremely rare

There still are some services where you can buy lossless music in higher quality, but Tidal isn't one of them

Do you think I should switch then? Is deezer just a better deal overall? I never bought into the MQA hype so I'm solely asking on an audio quality basis.
