Apple Music Announces Spatial Audio and Lossless Audio
From the article:<p>&gt; J Balvin said: [...] With Lossless, everything in the music is going to sound bigger and stronger but more importantly, it will be better quality. [...]<p>There have been tests showing we cannot hear the difference between minimally lossy audio (e.g. mp3 320kbps) and lossless. But Balvin can. And it sounds &quot;bigger and stronger&quot;.<p>The extra quality of lossless is nice when mixing&#x2F;remixing the sound, as the inaudible loss of quality with minimally lossy audio (e.g. mp3 320kbps) is audible when the sound is sped up or slowed down.<p>But, and this the article does not mention, is not what Apple Music wants you to do. The formats will be proprietary with DRM.<p>I prefer FLAC&#x2F;OggVorbis&#x2F;etc when it comes to music. But then I like to be able to mix&#x2F;remix.
