It is Jan 2, 2022 and no Spotify Hi-Fi music. I got tired of Spotify's 5 yr promises to deliver lossless music and moved from Spotify (free) to Amazon Music HD. A few observations from a non-audiophile: 1) on my primary amp/speakers AMHD is a noticeable improvement, 2) on my distributed audio via Yam MusicCast into ceiling speakers, no significant background music improvement, 3) Spotify integrates into MusicCast much better than AMHD, & 4) while the UI's differ there isn't a particular advantage either way. Bottom line - I have discovered a new pleasure on listening to lossless music on my amp/speakers via AMHD !!!
